Google Drive Upload Not Working

I’m trying to split an ArcGIS sde table of rooms into multiple CSVs based on floors, and then upload the resulting CSVs into a Google Drive directory. I have the first part, but when I run the Google Drive connector it says the translation is successful, but nothing gets uploaded to the GD directory. I have admin access to GD and there is nothing wrong with my connection. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

Replace the classic CSV writer with a FeatureWriter, connect the outputport of the FeatureWriter to the inputport of the GoogleDriveConnector.

As the GoogleDriveConnector is not connected to anything, it is not initiated so it does not anything.

Default writers have no outputport, so you can’t initiate another proces when writing is finished.

This is where FeatureWriters shine. This transformer has a summary feature, which you can use to initiate the GoogleDriveConnector.

If you want to test this for now, you can simply connect a Creator transformer to the GoogleDriveConnector to initiate it.

Adding a creator worked, thank you. How would I then get the creator to trigger once the CSVs have been written to the local temp folder?

Thanks! I may write to Google Sheets instead but that is to be determined
