    Hi stageandshow,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Are you referring to G Suite legacy free edition? If not, then can you please elaborate more on what you are referring to about Legacy version of Google Drive so we can help you more? We also have a guide about How to Integrate Your Form With Google Drive that you can check out.

    In the meantime, let us know if there’s anything else we can help you with.

    I'm referring to this:

    The "exciting new features" are that it works totally differently than the old setup, and it's terrible. I used to be able to select an existing folder and now it makes a new one. I also cannot seem to name the file based on a value in the submission. Is there no way to use the old configuration?

    Hi stageandshow,

    Although the new integration version does not give you the option to select an existing Google Drive folder anymore, you can still set the value of a certain field as a sub-folder name. Check the screenshot below:

    As for the missing feature on the new integration version, I will get back to you for an update.

    Hi stageandshow,

    While the feature you’re looking for isn’t currently available with the new Google Drive integration version, rest assured we’re always working to add new services and features to Jotform. I've gone ahead and escalated your request to our Developers. When or if it's implemented depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know. 

    Let us know if there's anything else we can help.
