    Hi @lisha,

     

    You can use Web Automation tools to open the Google Drive in web browser and Upload the excel sheet into it. For which, you have to mention the steps for Login to Google Drive and the excel filename with path and use the step click the button (upload).

    Best alternative i think is uploading file in GD page.  

    Try this (tested):

    1. 'Display select file dialog' to choose Excel file (File filter = *.xlsx). Output var: %SelectedFile%

    2. Launch your preferred browser (Initial URL = https://www.google.com/drive/

    3. 'Click UI element in window' and click in Access Drive' button

    4. Use 'Populate text field in window' and ''Click UI element in window' to proceed with login and password (if necessary)

    Once in the Google Drive main page:

    5. 'Press button in window'. Capture 'My Drive' button (button[Name="My Drive"])

    6. 'Select menu option in window'. Capture 'Upload files' option (menuitem[Name="Upload files"])

    This will open a window to select file. In this window:

    7. 'Click UI element in window' and capture 'Name' field (edit[Name="Name")

    8. 'Populate text field in window'. Text box: Name field, Text = %SelectedFile%
    9. 'Press button in window' and capture Open button (button[Name="Open"])

    Or, if you have a GD folder in your computer, save the file in this folder and launch GD app to synchronize it.

    Thanks for your help/ solution.

     

    Can you tell me one thing, how can I enter the password while login by UI element. As by using populate text field, password not write, it shows error 'failed to write text in form field'

    I used 'Populate text field in window' and captured the password field (selector = group[Id="password"]).

    In Text to fill-in use your password as sensitive text.
