I just moved from Dropbox to Google Drive. I'm trying to set up the exact same Automator with Google Drive that I previously had with Dropbox and it is not working.
Previously, I used Automator to monitor the "camera uploads" folder in dropbox, so anytime a new photo was added, it automatically imported to Aperture. That process worked very well.
When I switched to Google Drive, I am attempting to do the same thing. I created a camera uploads folder within my Google Drive folder. I then set up the automator (the exact same way I had with Dropbox) but is is not working.
The automator works correctly the very first time - ie, the first photo I moved to that folder was successfully imported to Aperture. Subsequent photos added will not work. Aperture opens as expected, but the photos never came over.
I ran the workflow within Automator to try and see what is going on and am getting a popup box that says:
"The action Import Photos encountered an error. Check the actionʼs properties and try running the workflow again."
Down below in the Automator Log it says:
"Filter Finder Items completed - 1 Warning"
"Import Photos failed - 1 error, 1 warning"
"The action "Import Phots" was not supplied witht he requred data
"Some parameter wasn't understood".
I've gone back and tried to re-set up the same automator in Dropbox and it exhibits the same issues as above. The very first photo will import. Try and add another photo, Aperture opens but the import doesn't happen. Run the script within automator, and it shows the errors above.
Any ideas?
