  3. Gmail Attachment Archiver to Drive
Productivity·Polls hourly

AI attachment archiver that files every Gmail attachment to Google Drive.

For every Gmail message under a specific label, save each attachment to a dated Google Drive folder — never lose a receipt, invoice, or signed doc.

Under the hood — the exact prompt Claude sees
You are an archiver. For each Gmail message below, name the destination Drive folder as `YYYY-MM/{sender}` (year-month subfolder, then sender name normalized to kebab-case). Rename each attachment as `{YYYY-MM-DD}_{sender}_{original-filename}`. Skip attachments that are calendar invites (.ics) or read-receipts. Reply with JSON only: {"actions": [{"messageId": string, "attachmentId": string, "folder": string, "filename": string, "skip_reason": string|null}]}. Messages with attachments: {{messages}}
What you configure

Claude uses these on every run — set them during activation.

Frequently askedQuestions about Gmail Attachment Archiver to Drive+
How long does it take to set up Gmail Attachment Archiver to Drive?+

About 60 seconds. Connect Gmail, fill in the plain-English fields the template asks for, and hit Activate. Pilotran runs the workflow once against sample data so you can see what Claude does before it touches your real accounts.

Can I edit Gmail Attachment Archiver to Drive after activating it?+

Yes — pause, edit the prompt, tweak the fields, or delete the workflow at any time from your Workflows page. Paused workflows keep their run history and can be resumed later.

Which AI model runs my workflow?+

Every workflow uses Anthropic's Claude by default. On any paid plan you can add your own Anthropic or OpenAI API key and pay providers directly for unlimited runs — Pilotran only meters when it's on our shared credits.

Does Pilotran train AI models on my data?+

No. Your workflow data is only used to execute the workflows you activated. We do not train models on your data or share it with third parties.

What happens if a run fails?+

Pilotran's Failure Doctor auto-explains what broke (bad credentials, invalid input, provider rate limit, etc.) and suggests a fix. Failed runs don't disappear — you can retry any run from the Runs page.
