PLAYBOOK T02 · Multi-Photo Form Uploads & Opportunity Folders KEYWORD: PHOTO FOLDER

How Do You Automate Multi-Photo Form Uploads Into a Single Folder Link on a GoHighLevel Opportunity?

Answer: When staff submit 20+ inspection or damage photos on a GoHighLevel form, emailing 20 raw attachment URLs to a client looks messy and individual file links take forever to open one by one. Have the form submission fire a Workflow webhook that creates a shared Google Drive folder named after the Opportunity, uploads every photo from the form's file array, checks that the uploaded count matches the submitted count, and writes the single folder link back to an Opportunity custom field before manager approval.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS + ANNOTATED GHL SCREENSHOTS

Steps in GoHighLevel

  1. STEP 1
    In Sites > Forms, add a File Upload field configured to allow multiple images and make sure external file access is enabled in your sub-account settings so your webhook worker can download each photo URL without a login prompt.

  2. STEP 2
    In Automation > Workflows, trigger on Form Submitted, create or update the Opportunity, and fire an outbound Webhook action passing {{contact.id}}, {{opportunity.id}}, and the multi-file upload field to create a shared Drive folder, upload each photo, and verify the uploaded file count matches the submitted count.

Wire multi-photo form uploads to a single Opportunity folder URL in sub-account <YOUR_LOCATION_ID>:
1. In Settings > Custom Fields (Object: Opportunity), create URL field inspection_photos_folder_url and text field photo_upload_status.
2. In Sites > Forms, configure the inspection form with a multi-file upload field.
3. In Automation > Workflows, trigger on Form Submitted, send the file array and opportunity ID to the folder-creation webhook, write the shared folder URL back to opportunity.inspection_photos_folder_url, and gate the client approval email on photo_upload_status = Complete.
Cause
  • Inspection, restoration, and property teams often upload 15 to 30 photos per item using a GoHighLevel form and wait for a manager to approve the record before emailing the customer.
  • Sending two dozen separate file URLs in an email looks unprofessional, and manually downloading and re-uploading photos into Google Drive for every ticket wastes hours every week.
GoHighLevel Configuration
  • Pass the form's uploaded file URL array and Opportunity ID to a webhook workflow that creates one shared Google Drive folder per submission, verifies all files finished uploading
  • and saves the folder link into a custom field on the Opportunity so your manager-approval email merges a clean gallery URL.
