Action - Google Drive Download Files (Experimental)

The action Google Drive Download Files (Experimental) downloads multiple files and directories recursively to your device.

Warning: This action downloads all specified files and overwrites already existing target files. The files will be downloaded even when the same file already exists on the device.

Note: Google Drive allows to create duplicate files which is not possible on a regular filesystem. Automagic only considers the newest file in such a case and ignores duplicates.
Note: Google Documents are not downloaded.

 

Examples:
  • Download each morning the newest file of keypass containing your passwords to ensure you have the newest offline copy available.
