Add the Google Docs "Document added to folder" trigger

Every playbook starts with a trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and runs your playbook in response.

Click "Add trigger" and select "Document added to folder" under Google Docs. Then, select the parent folder you want to monitor. This trigger will automatically detect all the new documents added to the specific folder in Google Docs to create new contacts in HubSpot

If this is your first time using a Google Docs integration in Relay, you'll be prompted to connect your Google Docs account.

Add the HubSpot "Get or create contact" automation

Integrate the HubSpot automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt creation of new contacts in HubSpot for every new file added in a specific folder in Google Docs. Add a new step and select "Get or create contact" from the list of HubSpot automations.

Connect HubSpot to Relay if you haven't already, then fill out the mandatory and relevant details. You can reference fields from Google Docs to automatically pass along the right data.

Turn on the playbook

Activating your playbook is the final step to automate creating new contacts in HubSpot for every new file added to a specific folder in Google Docs.
