docParser URL input

Hi,

DocParser only allows urls as the source for inbound files.

I need to trigger my docParser object when a pdf hits Google Drive?

I don't know how to make this happen?  Anyway I can pass in the name of the file found in the Google Drive new file found trigger?


Is there anyway to make this happen with Workato? 

Thank You

Hi Leslie,


You can take the URL from the output of the New/Updated File for Google Drive. If I'm not mistaken, that would be the "Web content link" data pill. DocParser only accepts publicly accessible URLs so you need to check on the sharing settings of the file on Google Drive. You can get the name of the file in the "Name" data pill, but from what I can see there is no field in the DocParser action to map in the Name. I hope this helps!
