Search Qury: empty

Hi there, i just tried and it works fine on my side

Have you make sure the credential is correct and the folder is also correct?

Thank you for the reply !
So when I look at the JSON I also see the other files, but in the table only one.
The issue is that next on I have form to select from - there I can see only that 1 specific file instead of everything else.

Again, thank you very much for the help.
Umm I am not sure I can share it due to my company policy…
I will try my best to explain where I am stuck:

The google drive node does give an outout in the json of all the names and links.
Next thing is that I have a form where I want the user to be able to choose one of these docs - How ever what happens is that the user can see only one doc actually.
what I did in the meantime was adding manually all the docs with the name + weblink in different fields

I know for sure there’s a way to be able to see the docs without this and choose one of them
