Overview

Lead with automatic project/document filing into an existing Google Workspace environment.

By creating the folder structure from WorkGuru records, the integration helps keep documents organised around the same clients, suppliers and jobs your business is already managing.

FAQs

Google Drive questions

Do we need to manually create a Google Drive folder for every project?

No. WorkGuru can create the corresponding folder automatically when the first file for that entity or transaction is processed.

Where are files stored?

Files sit under the Shared Drive and root folder chosen during setup, then follow a structured hierarchy for clients, suppliers and supported transactions.

Can staff still use Google Drive normally?

Yes. The integration is designed to let Google Drive remain the familiar file-storage environment while WorkGuru handles the operational link and folder creation.

Upload it to the job. Let WorkGuru put it in the right Drive folder.
