How the Google Drive integration works

It pairs with the native Gmail and Google Sheets integrations for teams already on Google Workspace.

  1. 1. Trigger

    A creator agrees terms

    The collaboration is confirmed in the thread.

  2. Cheerful logo

    2. Cheerful

    The agent creates a folder

    Named for the campaign and the creator.

  3. Google Drive logo

    3. Google Drive

    Files live in one place

    Brief shared, contract and content saved.

What can you do with Cheerful and Google Drive?

4 ways influencer teams use this connection today. Each one is something the agent does now, not a roadmap item.

  • Create a Google Drive folder for each influencer

    When a creator agrees to terms, the agent can create "Campaign / Creator name" in Drive so briefs, contracts and raw footage have a known home.

    1. Creator agrees terms
    2. Your automation runs
    3. Drive folder created
  • Share a campaign brief with an influencer from Drive

    Ask the agent to find the brief in Drive and share it with the creator’s email as a viewer, so the link in your reply always works.

  • Hand off creator content to a client in Google Drive

    Agencies can have the agent upload a campaign’s delivered assets to a client folder and share it with the client team at wrap.

  • Save a file from a link into Drive

    The agent can upload a file from a URL into the right folder, such as a contract PDF or a content file a creator sent a link to.

What Cheerful's agent can do in Google Drive

Google Drive exposes 91 actions to Cheerful’s agent, including:

  • Create folders
  • Find files and folders
  • Upload a file, or upload from a URL
  • Copy and move files
  • Share a file or folder with someone
  • Export a Google Doc or Sheet
  • Comment on a file

How to connect Google Drive to Cheerful

Setup takes 4 steps. Connected apps are added from the app catalogue in Settings.

  1. 1

    In Cheerful, open Settings, go to Integrations and search the catalogue for Google Drive.

  2. 2

    Sign in with Google and approve Drive access.

  3. 3

    In the chat that opens, tell the agent where campaign folders should live.

  4. 4

    Automations are set up in chat on a campaign. They run when a creator opts in, replies or is added to the campaign, or on a schedule, and the agent tests each one on a real creator thread before you switch it on.
