Collaboration and file sharing using cloud folders automatically created per project

Purpose

1. Automate the creation of cloud-based folders for each new music production project to streamline collaboration, file management, and media access between producers, artists, managers, and external partners.

2. Ensures secure, organized, and fast sharing of project assets (stems, mixes, artwork) by automatedly assigning permissions, links, and notifying stakeholders.

3. Supports version control, centralizes resources, automates archiving upon project completion, and improves workflow efficiency in music production agencies.

Trigger Conditions

1. Automated folder creation when a new project entry is added to the project management tool (e.g., Airtable, Monday.com, Trello).

2. Trigger on signed contract upload, booking confirmation, or new client onboarding form submission.

3. Scheduled automation based on a calendar event (e.g., session start date) or when specific statuses are reached (e.g., project moves to "production" stage).
