Hello dear community,
I urgently want to build an automation that allows me to pull uploaded images from a Google Drive and then insert them into Buffer. The process should look like this:
- rough content is inserted into Google Sheets
- ChatGPT pulls the content and creates a LinkedIn post from it
- the created post is inserted back into the Google Sheet
- upload a suitable image that matches the post to a Google Drive folder
- in Buffer, the content is taken from the Google Sheet and the image is pulled from the Drive
The problem here is that everything works perfectly with the text. However, I have not found a way for the automation to always pull the last uploaded image from the Drive folder. If I specify “Download a File” as a module, as in the screenshot, it always pulls out the same image
Hey @AICADAMY
Can you provide a screenshot of the settings of your GOOGLE DRIVE module please?
It will help answer your question.
Thanks!

Hi Pierre,
This is it. I can select the desired folder, but then I have to select a file. In this case it is “77777.png”. It only pulls the same image each time, and not the images that are uploaded again
Ok clear.
Now the question is:
1/ how do you upload these images into your GDrive?
2/ where do you keep track of such uploads? In the GSheet?
1/ Either from my phone or from my Mac
2/ I do not track the uploaded images. Only the content that is produced (text) is visible in the Google Sheet
Ok so here is the plan
→ you need to first list images from your folder
→ then aggregate results into an array
→ sort by creation date
→ then pick the first element

Use the above to REPLACE your GOOGLE DRIVE module
How did it work @AICADAMY ?
Thanks for the detailed reply.
But I get this error from the Downlaod a File Module
I think I see the Problem
The Array aggregator always unchecks the “File ID” box
no no → you mapped the wrong field in the GDrive
Stick to what I shared previously
