Use this activity to create a Google Document.

Configuration

The Configuration tab has the following fields that identify which Google connection to use.

Field Description
Connection

The Google connection name. If you have multiple Google connections, select the one you want to use in this flow.

Indexable Content Enable this option to permit Google to index the document for search engine optimization.

Input

The Input tab has the following fields:

Field Description
name The name or title of the document.
mimeType

Specify a Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) type. The document is created using the specified MIME type unless there are compatibility issues. Comma-separated values are more commonly used to generate a spreadsheet and plain text is represented in a Word document. For a more definitive list of available MIME types, see https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml

description Maps to the description metadata field of the document.
parentfolders

This comma separated list of folder ids will be mapped to the document’s metadata. Each folder mentioned will contain the new document.

text If the input is plain text, map it here.
base64

If the input is encoded as base64, map it here. It will be decoded before being sent to Google to create the document. Any binary field from a previous activity qualifies as base64 input.

Output

The Output tab displays the fields that correspond to the metadata for the newly created document.
