Hello everyone,

“I’m building a workflow following the course. The course setup is: create a simple form where users upload a photo, enter the prompt they want to run, and provide an email. I’m currently stuck on the first two modules. As shown in my video, the Google Drive module throws this error: ‘Missing value of required parameter “file”.’ However, when I change the module’s ‘Where to start’ setting to ‘All’, the second module becomes able to map the data again.”

Looking for someone to help me out

Here is screen recording below

Thanks!

Hey @Redd — the error “Missing value of required parameter ‘file’” from the Google Drive module usually means it’s not getting any file data to process in your workflow.

Here are two quick checks:

On the Google Forms trigger, verify the file upload field is correctly outputting binary/file data that the Drive module expects.

In the subsequent Drive module, ensure you explicitly map the file data field (often called “File data” or similar) rather than just filename or URL.

Try adjusting Where to start to “All” temporarily (which you mentioned worked) and run a new form submission — see if the file appears in the module output. Then map that exact output into Google Drive and you should get past this error.
