Local and Cloud Backups
This template is ready for Workflows Runner
Gmail
Google DriveBackups only work if they actually happen, consistently, completely, and without relying on anyone to remember. This template automates the full backup cycle for any folder: a local copy for immediate access, a cloud copy for offsite redundancy, and an email confirmation so you know it's done.
Set it up once. Let it run.

Put it to work: how to use this template
- Configure the Folder node with the path of the directory you want to back up.
- Set the Copy node with your local backup destination.
- Connect your Google Drive account and set the target folder for the cloud copy.
- Finally, configure the Gmail node with the recipient address and any details you want included in the confirmation email.
Run the workflow whenever a backup is needed. When it completes, you'll have two copies of your data and an email in your inbox confirming it.
Take it. It's yours.
