@pratik Strangely Google Drive doesn’t support iOS Shortcuts to let you save a file to Google Drive, like you can for iCloud or Dropbox. This Reddit post from 3 years ago is unanswered is not encouraging. How can such a basic thing not exist?

@pratik Just saw this. Between Drafts & Shortcuts, this should be doable. Uploading as separate files?

@jmreekes image in one folder and text in another. Tried modifying your other shortcut but GDrive doesn’t have an Save to… option.

@pratik Forgot about that. Saving the text through Drafts should be easy because Drafts has a built-in Google Drive action. Shortcuts has a save to files action but you would have to select the specific folder each time, which defeats the purpose. More to come

@jmreekes I don’t mind selecting the folder (prefer not to though) to save either the text file or the image file. Ideally, like with Blot, would be nice to upload the image to a folder, get its path, copied to a Drafts file to add text and then to send that file to another folder on GDrive. Thanks for your help.
