Auto File Organizer for Google Drive: Sort PDFs, Images & Docs
Smartly detects MIME types of files in a Google Drive folder and auto-moves them to organized subfolders for PDFs, Images, or Documents.
This n8n workflow automates file organization in Google Drive by scanning a source folder (e.g., 'Uploads'), detecting file types via MIME (PDFs, images like JPEG, documents like JSON), and moving them to dedicated folders: PDFs, Images, or Documents. It uses a manual trigger, loops through files reliably with SplitInBatches, downloads metadata for classification, and employs If nodes for routing before relocating files via Google Drive API—preserving properties and clearing the source.
Benefits include effortless maintenance of a tidy Drive, saving hours on manual sorting for teams, admins, educators, and pros in legal or operations. It's batch-safe, customizable for more types (PNG, DOCX), and secured with OAuth2. No more cluttered uploads—ideal for client files, invoices, receipts, or scans.
Use cases: Auto-organize team uploads, separate forms/images/PDFs, route business docs. Perfect for remote workflows, ensuring compliance and efficiency without complex setup.
