I'm not sure if there's already a post somewhere for this particular want, but essentially what I'm hoping to achieve is an automated (as much as possible) flow / process to take a copy of the files within a document library in SharePoint Online and move that copy to my Google Drive account. (Creating a "backup" copy of our files). Ideally this would be completed on a weekly basis.

I'm not sure if it can go directly between SPO and Google Drive, or if it would be easier to have SPO sync to OneDrive for Business then from ODFB to Google Drive.

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! TIA!

Hi @abm

Thanks for the suggestion. I have seen those types of templates, however, I'm not just wanting the "new" files to move to Google Drive, but rather, everything (old and new); a complete copy of all files within the document library. Our team works within files and some could have multiple versions.

Hi @KSemchyshyn

Please have a look PowerAutomate steps for SharePoint and Google Drive. There are couple of actions and triggers out there to achieve you want. You could get all the files from SharePoint using List files and get the files to google drive. If you planning to do this via weekly then you need an identifier in SharePoint saying that relevant files are moved already. You can use the SharePoint trigger when a file is created then you can use that info to copy the file to Google drive.
