Automatically monitor new or updated files in Amazon S3 buckets across Amazon S3 and Google Drive. Create and update timestamped backups when new file uploads, updated objects, or bucket file changes — so you can format filenames, avoid duplicate copies, and upload backups without manual backups.
How this automation creates timestamped backups
When new or updated files appear in your Amazon S3 bucket, backups can be delayed or saved with inconsistent names. This automation watches S3 files and uploads them to Google Drive with formatted timestamps and optional duplicate detection—so your team can restore faster.
2.Formats last-modified timestamp
Integrate Formatter by Zapier and date tools to format the last-modified timestamp for a consistent backup filename.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
