Drop a document in a Google Drive folder and have it land in your digital brain automatically — parsed, connected, and ready to query. No more uploading files one by one.
When: Google Drive → New File in Folder. Then: Brain Graph → Upload Document (File).
Proposals, reports, briefs, and PDFs pile up in Google Drive, but they're only useful to your AI if they're in your digital brain. Uploading each one by hand is the kind of small friction that quietly never happens — so the knowledge stays trapped in a folder no agent can reach. This template removes the step entirely: anything you save to a chosen folder is captured the moment it lands.
Connect your Google Drive account and pick the trigger "New File in Folder." Select the folder you want monitored — a dedicated "To Brain Graph" folder, or an existing client or project folder. The Zap fires whenever a file is created in, moved to, or uploaded to that folder.
Add a "Filter by Zapier" step set to "Only continue if…" so the Zap proceeds only for supported document types — PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD. This keeps images, spreadsheets, or anything you don't want to ingest from cluttering your graph.
Add the Brain Graph action "Upload Document (File)," connect with your BrainGraph API key, and map the Google Drive file to the document field. Brain Graph extracts the text and processes it into your knowledge graph in the background.
Run Zapier's test step with a real file to confirm it appears in your brain, then switch the Zap on. From here, every document you save to that folder is captured automatically.
