There are times when you want to quickly share a new file added to Google Drive with members via Microsoft Teams. However, have you ever experienced being too busy with work to send a message promptly, or even forgetting to do so? If you have had such experiences, we recommend taking this opportunity to integrate Google Drive and Microsoft Teams!
That said, when it comes to integration, you might feel that "the setup seems difficult" or "an engineer's help might be needed." However, by utilizing the no-code tool Yoom, anyone can easily integrate Google Drive and Microsoft Teams and enable automatic data synchronization!
By achieving integration, you may be able to reduce the burden of manual tasks and prevent file sharing errors.
In this article, we will explain in detail what can be done with the integration of Google Drive and Microsoft Teams, as well as the specific setup procedures. If you want to automate file sharing with your team members, please read to the end!
For those who want to try it as soon as possible
By using Yoom, you can easily integrate Google Drive and Microsoft Teams with no code. Yoom provides templates for integrating Google Drive and Microsoft Teams in advance, so you can achieve integration immediately just by registering, even without API knowledge.
What You Can Do by Integrating Google Drive and Microsoft Teams
By integrating the APIs of Google Drive and Microsoft Teams, you can automatically sync Google Drive data with Microsoft Teams!
For example, you can automatically perform data synchronization like the following without human intervention.
Notify Microsoft Teams When a New File is Uploaded to Google Drive
This flow is recommended for accounting personnel or project managers who frequently review documents! Since Microsoft Teams will notify you of file uploads, you can smoothly confirm and share files.
Regularly Retrieve a List of Files in a Google Drive Folder and Post to Microsoft Teams
This flow is recommended for administrative staff who find file organization and management cumbersome. One of its attractions is the ability to regularly compile and review a list of files.
Let's Create a Google Drive and Microsoft Teams Integration Flow!
Let's dive in and create a flow that integrates Google Drive with Microsoft Teams!
This time, we'll use Yoom to proceed with the integration of Google Drive and Microsoft Teams without any coding. If you don't have a Yoom account yet, please issue one from the Yoom Registration Form.
[What is Yoom]
This time, we'll create a flow bot that "notifies Microsoft Teams when a new file is uploaded to Google Drive"!
The creation process is broadly divided into the following steps:
Integrate Google Drive and Microsoft Teams with My Apps
Copy the template
Set the trigger and action
Set the trigger to ON and prepare for flow operation
Step 1: Register My Apps
First, register "Google Drive" and "Microsoft Teams" as My Apps.
Click "Add" on the right from "My Apps" on the left.
Register Google Drive as My App
After clicking "Add", search for "Google Drive" from the list of apps.
When the following screen appears, click "Sign with Google" to proceed.
Select the account you want to use.
Check the following screen and click "Continue".
Check the following screen and click "Continue" to proceed.
This completes the registration of My Apps.
Register Microsoft Teams as My App
After clicking "Add", search for "Microsoft Teams" from the list of apps.
When the following screen appears, log in to your Microsoft365 account. If you do not have an account, please create one.
*Microsoft365 (formerly Office365) has both a home plan and a general business plan (Microsoft365 Business). If you are not subscribed to the general business plan, authentication may fail, so please check.
This completes the registration of My Apps!
Step 2: Copy Template
From here, we will actually create a flow bot!
Click "Try it" from the banner below to copy the template.
Once the template copy is complete, click "OK".
Step 3: Set the App Trigger
Please click "When a new file or folder is created".
When the following screen appears, check the account information to be linked and proceed to the next step.
Next is the API connection settings.
Set the interval according to your business needs.
You can select the trigger interval from 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes. Also, please note that the shortest interval varies depending on the plan.
After setting the trigger interval, please conduct a test.
If the test is successful, the following screen will appear.
By quoting the retrieved value in subsequent settings, it is possible to send to Microsoft Teams!
Click "Save" and proceed to the next step.
Step 4: Set the Branch
Next, click "Command Operation".
Next, set the branch
The branch is a feature (operation) available with the Mini Plan or higher. If you are on the Free Plan, the operation of the Flow Bot you have set will result in an error, so please be careful! Additionally, paid plans like the Mini Plan offer a 2-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use apps and features (operations) that are subject to restrictions.
Set "Operation" to "When a new file or folder is created". Select "File ID" for "Retrieved value".
You can select from the dropdown, so choose from there.
By selecting "is not empty" in the branch condition, it will branch between those with a non-empty File ID and others.
Click "Save" and proceed to the next step.
Click "Save".
Step 5: Set to Send a Message to the Channel
Next, click "Send message to channel".
When the following screen appears, check the linked account information and proceed to the next step.
Next is the API connection settings.
"Team ID" is the team ID of Microsoft Teams. Select from the candidates.
"Channel ID" should be selected from the candidates. Notifications will be sent to the channel specified here.
For "Message", please enter according to the following setting example.
Select "File Name" from retrieved values. By including "File Name", it becomes easier to verify the file through search.
Please set "Mention Information" and "Attachment Information" as needed. If there is a project manager or someone you want to mention, you can set "Mention Information".
Finally, let's conduct a test. If the test is successful, click "Save" and proceed to the next step.
Step 6: Confirm Flow Bot Automation
When the following screen appears, click "Trigger ON".
This completes all the settings!

I've been a writer for 8 years. I like writing. I will do my best to bring the appeal of Yoom to many people!
Conventional RPA can only automate simple repetitive tasks, and the setup process was very complicated. With “hyperautomation,” which combines various technologies such as AI, API, RPA, and OCR, it is possible to automate many tasks that could not be realized until now more easily than before.
Most tools simply connect one app to another, leaving the complex tasks to you. Yoom goes much further: From document creation and browser automation to OCR and generative AI, Yoom handles it all seamlessly in one platform.
Why settle for basic integrations? Streamline your entire workflow with Yoom’s powerful hyperautomation.
