Google Drive integration

Connect Eloope to Google Drive to automatically save receipts and expense reports to your Drive folders. Keep all your expense documentation organized and accessible.

What the Google Drive integration does

The Google Drive integration gives you automatic cloud backup and organization for your expense files. Once connected, you can:

• Automatically upload receipts to Google Drive when expenses are created.
• Save approved expense reports as PDFs to designated Drive folders.
• Organize files by month, department, or employee using folder structures.
• Trigger file uploads from automation workflows.

Connect Google Drive

1. Go to Admin Settings in the left sidebar.
2. Click Integrations.
3. Find Google Drive in the list and click Connect.
4. A Google sign-in window opens. Sign in with your Google account.
5. Review the permissions Eloope is requesting and click Allow.
6. You are redirected back to Eloope. The Google Drive integration now shows as Connected.

Note: Eloope only requests access to files and folders it creates. It cannot read or modify your other Google Drive files.

Use Google Drive in automations

Set up automation workflows to upload files to Google Drive automatically.

Upload receipts when expenses are created:

1. Open Automation in the left sidebar.
2. Create a new workflow with the trigger Expense created.
3. Add an action node and select Upload to Google Drive.
4. Choose the destination folder in Google Drive.
5. Save and activate the workflow.

Every new expense with a receipt will have its receipt file uploaded to the specified Drive folder.

Save reports when approved:

1. Create a new workflow with the trigger Report approved.
2. Add an action node and select Save Report to Google Drive.
3. Choose the destination folder.
4. Save and activate the workflow.

Approved reports are exported as PDFs and saved to your Drive automatically.

Organize files by folder

Structure your Google Drive folders to match how your team works. Common folder structures include:

• By month: Expenses / 2026 / March / receipts
• By department: Expenses / Marketing / receipts
• By employee: Expenses / Jane Smith / receipts

When configuring the Upload to Google Drive action in automations, you can use dynamic variables to automatically sort files into the right folders based on the expense date, department, or employee name.

Disconnect Google Drive

1. Go to Admin Settings > Integrations.
2. Find Google Drive and click Disconnect.
3. Confirm the disconnection.

Disconnecting stops all automatic uploads. Files already saved to Google Drive remain there. You can reconnect at any time.
