What it looks like in Drive
What the synced files look like in your Drive — three levels, from the root folder down to the files themselves.
Files are never dumped into one folder. The workflow builds three levels, so a file's path tells you which order and which product it belongs to before you open it.

└── Order #1112 ← one per order

The root folder
Everything the workflow creates lives inside one folder. If you did not choose one when you set the automation up, it is created in My Drive and called Globo order files.

Share this one folder with your production team and they see every order as it arrives, without needing access to the rest of your Drive.
The order folder
Inside the root, each order gets its own folder. The default name is Order #{order_number}, which is the number your team sees in Shopify admin.

The product level only exists when Create a folder for each product is on. Turn it off and every file in the order lands directly in the order folder — fine for one-product orders, confusing for the rest.
The product folder
The lowest level holds the actual files. The default name is {product_title} - {variant_title}, so a folder tells you the exact variant to produce.

The customer's original filename is not kept, which is why the numbering exists. See File names.
Changing the shape
Everything under a folder you already share
Root folder — select Change and pick it
Folders named by customer or date instead of order number
Order folder name — use {customer_name} or {order_date}
One folder per order, no product level
Turn off Create a folder for each product
Folders named by SKU, for a production system that matches on it
Product folder name — use {sku}
Uploads only, no design images
Turn off Also sync personalizer design images
All of these are on the Google Drive sync page, and the preview there shows the result before you save.
Notes
Folders are created the first time a file needs them, so an order with no uploads creates nothing.
Changing a name setting affects new orders only. Folders that already exist are not renamed.
Renaming or moving a folder in Drive yourself does not break the workflow, but the app creates the expected folder again on the next order.
A file already in Drive is never copied twice, so a retry only adds what is missing. See Google Drive sync history.
