I had this small but annoying workflow — emails come in with attachments, I download them, then upload to Drive.
Didn’t feel worth the effort, but it kept happening daily.
So I set up a simple n8n flow:
-
Gmail trigger (watch for new emails with attachments)
-
Filter (optional: specific sender or subject)
-
Extract attachments
-
Upload to Google Drive (auto-folder based on email or date)
Now everything just lands in Drive organized, no manual steps.
Took like 10–15 mins to set up, but saves time every single day.
I also made a generator for similar workflows.
