Extract Invoice Data from Google Drive to Sheets using PDF.co AI Parser

This workflow scans a specified Google Drive folder for PDF invoice files, generates shareable URLs for each, and uses PDF.co's AI Invoice Parser to extract structured data including vendor name, total amounts, invoice dates, and line items. The extracted data is then formatted and appended to a Google Sheet, with each row including a direct link back to the original Drive file for easy reference.

Setup is straightforward: connect Google Drive and Sheets via OAuth2 credentials, add your PDF.co API key, specify the Drive folder and target Sheet. The workflow handles folder ID retrieval, file listing, URL conversion, AI parsing, data mapping, and sheet appending automatically.

Benefits include massive time savings on manual data entry, reduced errors from OCR/AI parsing, scalability for high-volume invoicing, and seamless integration across Drive, AI services, and Sheets. Ideal for finance teams, accounts payable in small businesses, freelancers tracking expenses, or any scenario needing automated invoice logging and reporting.
