Google Drive is a cloud storage and file management platform that provides 15GB free storage and deep integration with Google Workspace apps including Docs, Sheets, and Slides. Drive enables real-time collaborative editing, granular sharing permissions, and powerful search across all stored files. For automation workflows, Google Drive serves as both a file store and event source: new file uploads can trigger downstream workflows, while automated processes can create folders, upload files, and manage permissions programmatically. Drive integrates with hundreds of automation tools via Zapier, Make, and n8n, making it the most commonly used file storage layer in no-code and low-code automation stacks.
