Google Drive Large File Cleanup

Keep your Google Workspace storage under control. This scheduled workflow runs weekly to list all files across your Google Drive. It filters for any files larger than 1GB and outputs a structured list to Slack containing the owner, size, and direct link so team members can prune their space.
