Recognize invoices / receipts from Google Drive and put them into Google Sheets

This workflow allows you to recognize a folder with receipts or invoices (make sure your files are in .pdf, .png, or .jpg format). The workflow can be triggered via the "Test workflow" button, and it also monitors the folder for new files, automatically recognizing them.

1. n8n import glitch After import, the trigger node "When clicking 'Test workflow'" might be disconnected. You need to connect it via 2 arrows to "Google Sheets1" and "Google Drive" nodes. So, the workflow has 2 triggers - via button, and via Google Sheets "new file" event - both of these triggers should be connected to 2 nodes. Here is how it should look like: https://ocr.oakpdf.com/n8n_fix.png
