Questions about this workflow
How does Drive know a report is overdue?
Drive only returns searchable file details. Use a filename or metadata status convention that signals delivery is pending.
Can it send the file automatically?
This workflow finds and reports matching files. To share a file automatically, specify that outcome and recipient in a separate workflow.
