Classifier for Google Drive
I'm considering building a classifier application for Google Drive.
I'm imagining there would be an "inbox" folder where new files would get automatically moved based on the contents, perhaps using regex rules.
Would love to hear any thoughts. Would you use this?
While it does not sound like something that I would use personally (because my own google drive usage patterns do not lend themselves to such a rule-based classification scheme) I can see how it might be of use to some.
I have just started researching the google drive API capabilities for a possible side project of my own - so I'm not (yet, anyway) familiar with what kinds of automation or other event-based features are supported. Is there a set of such features built in to the API to support that, or is that something that you will need to design and implement from the ground up?
Thanks for the comment!
I'm quite new to Google add-ons, but there's an API for the "Google Workspace" which includes Drive, Mail, and many other services.
Here's a link: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference
For this classifier app, I believe I'll need to glue many of the API capabilities together. As far as I can tell, such an app does not currently exist.
