Google Drive and Telegram integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Google Drive and Telegram and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Data & Storage, Communication, and HITL workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Google Drive and Telegram

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Google Drive and Telegram nodes

You can find Google Drive and Telegram in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure Google Drive and Telegram nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect Google Drive and Telegram

A connection establishes a link between Google Drive and Telegram (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.

Step 4: Customize and extend your Google Drive and Telegram integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Google Drive and Telegram with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.

Step 5: Test and activate your Google Drive and Telegram workflow

Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from Google Drive to Telegram or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.

AI Email Analyzer: Process PDFs, Images & Save to Google Drive + Telegram

This workflow automates the process of analyzing emails and their attachments (PDFs and images) using AI models (DeepSeek, Gemini, and OpenRouter). It extracts and summarizes the content of emails and attachments, saves the summaries to Google Sheets, and sends a final consolidated summary via Telegram. This is a powerful tool for automating email analysis and summarization, saving time and ensuring that important information is easily accessible and actionable. Below is a breakdown of the workflow: How It Works The workflow is designed to process incoming emails, analyze their content and attachments, and generate summaries. Here's how it works: Email Trigger: The workflow starts with the Email Trigger (IMAP) node, which monitors an email inbox for new emails. If an email contains attachments, the workflow processes them. Check for Attachments: The Contain Attachments? node checks if the email has attachments. If attachments are present, the workflow proceeds to process them. Process Attachments: The Get PDF and Images Attachments node extracts PDF and image attachments from the email. The Switch node separates PDFs and images for further processing: PDFs: The Extract from PDF node extracts text from PDFs, and the PDF Analyzer node summarizes the content. Images: The Analyze Image node uses AI to describe the content of images. Summarize Email Content: The Convert Text node converts the email's HTML content to plain text. The Email Summarization Chain node uses AI to generate a summary of the email's text content. Save Summaries: The Save Summary PDF, Save Summary Image, and Save Summary Text nodes save the summaries of PDFs, images, and email text, respectively, to Google Sheets. Consolidate Summaries: The All Summaries node aggregates the summaries of the email text, PDFs, and images. The Create Final Summary node uses AI to generate a unified summary of all the content. Send Final Summary: The Send Final Summary node sends the consolidated summary via Telegram to a specified chat ID. Set Up Steps To set up and use this workflow in n8n, follow these steps: IMAP Configuration: Set up IMAP credentials in n8n for the Email Trigger (IMAP) node. Ensure the email account is accessible via IMAP. AI Model Configuration: Configure the DeepSeek, Gemini, and OpenRouter credentials in n8n for the Email Summarization Chain, PDF Analyzer, and Create Final Summary nodes. Ensure the AI models are set up to generate summaries. Google Sheets Integration: Set up Google Sheets credentials in n8n for the Save Summary PDF, Save Summary Image, and Save Summary Text nodes. Specify the Google Sheet and worksheet where the summaries will be saved. Telegram Integration: Set up Telegram credentials in n8n for the Send Final Summary node. Insert your Chat ID in the Telegram node to receive the final summary. Test the Workflow: Send an email with attachments (PDFs and images) to the monitored email account. The workflow will: Extract and summarize the email content and attachments. Save the summaries to Google Sheets. Send a consolidated summary via Telegram. Optional Customization: replace IMAP trigger with Gmail or Outlook trigger Modify the workflow to include additional features, such as: Adding more AI models for different types of analysis. Sending notifications via other channels (e.g., Slack, email). Integrating with other storage services (e.g., Dropbox, AWS S3).

🚚 Automate Delivery Confirmation with Telegram Bot, Google Drive and Gmail

Tags: Supply Chain Management, Logistics, Transportation Context Hey! I'm Samir, a Supply Chain Engineer and Data Scientist from Paris founder of LogiGreen Consulting We design tools to help small and medium businesses in improving their logistics processes using data analytics and automation. > Let's use N8N to make supply chains more efficient and sustainable Supply Chains! Who is this template for? This workflow template is designed for logistics operations that cannot rely on a Transportation Management System to record proofs of deliveries. What is a delivery confirmation? This workflow uses a Telegram bot to automatically notify logistics teams by email when a shipment is delivered. Drivers (equipped with their smartphones) can record their arrival with all the necessary information for accurate distribution planning. How do we notify the delivery? Let us imagine a truck driver arriving at the destination; he can contact the bot to be guided on how to record the delivery. User Guide: the first bot's message is a brief explanation of the process Record Shipment Number: the bot asks the driver to share the shipment number and record it Collect GPS Location: the bot asks the driver to share its GPS location and record them Picture of the Shipment: the bot asks for a picture of the shipment and saves it in Google Drive Send Confirmation: after data collection, the bot proposes to send a confirmation to the logistics management team An email is then automatically sent by the N8N workflow including all the information recorded by the flow and a picture of the shipment. Prerequisite This workflow does not require any additional paying subscription. A Google Drive Account with a folder including a Google Sheet API Credentials: Google Drive API, Google Sheets API and Gmail API A Telegram Bot with its API token from BotFather A Google sheet to store the shipment records with these five columns prepared: shipmentNumber, recordTime, gpsLattitude, gpsLongitude, cargoPicture, deliveryTime Next Steps Follow the sticky notes to set up the parameters inside each node and get ready to improve your logistics operations! I have detailed the steps in a short tutorial 👇 🎥 Check My Tutorial 🚀 Interested in applications of N8N for Logistics & Supply Chain Management? Let's connect on Linkedin Notes This workflow can be adapted to add more functionalities. I explain how in the video. The bot can handle multiple drivers at the same time.
