Aggregate files from GDrive before downloading them

Hello everyone,

I’m currently working with an automated process that involves Google Drive. I have an automation that works perfectly but it’s costing me to many operations (img below).

So I was trying to make it less “greedy”.

I thought about moving the aggregator module before the Download module from GDrive (so I can get one bundle instead of six in this case). But when I do that it seems the download module struggle to find the fileID (even when using the map function). Blueprint export attached.

I have found similar topics online but none of them helped me.

Any idea how I can make this work ?

Hey @Olivier_Laurens

I’m afraid there is no way to make this scenario consume fewer operations :grimacing:

The ‘Download a file’ module can only download one file at once, hence 6 files will consume 6 operations to be downloaded.

Hello @Olly_Ats !
Thanks for your input. I understand that the ‘Download a file’ module can only handle one file at a time, leading to each file requiring a separate operation.
