Integration
Automate with Google Drive
Google Drive is the filing cabinet of your business. NVS automates around it — creating folder structures automatically, syncing files across tools, and triggering workflows the moment a document changes.
Use Cases
Every file added to the monitored Drive folder is checked by type: PDFs are parsed, Google Docs exported as text, and plain files used directly. Content is chunked, embedded, and indexed into Pinecone.
Trigger
File Created
google-drive.trigger
Google Drive fires when a new file is added to the monitored folder.
Read File
google-drive.download
File content downloaded from Drive for processing.
Switch
File Type
nvs.switch
Routes each file to the correct extraction path by MIME type.
PDF
Parse PDF
nvs.extract

Output
