What it does

Quick Overview This workflow collects new client details via an n8n Form and automatically creates a normalized, consistently named folder in Google Drive, returning the client fields along with the new folder ID and direct URL. How it works 1. Receives a new submission from an n8n Form that collects the client’s name, email, and company. 2. Cleans and normalizes the submitted fields (trims whitespace, lowercases the email) and generates a safe folder name in YYYY-MM-DD - Company - Name format. 3. Creates a new folder in Google Drive inside the configured parent drive and parent folder. 4. Outputs the normalized client details plus the created Google Drive folder name, folder ID, and a direct folder URL. Setup 1. Connect a Google Drive OAuth2 credential in the Google Drive folder-creation step. 2. Select the target parent Drive and parent Folder where new client folders should be created. 3. Run a test execution and submit the form using the Form Trigger test URL to verify the folder is created and the returned output includes the folder URL.
