# Naming convention: New files vs. new versions

Any time you add a new file to your Google Drive folder, it will automatically load either as a **new file** or as a **new version** in your project.

### How to upload **new files** from Google Drive

**If the file you upload to Google Drive has a unique name, it will be added to your project as a new file**.

For example: "Interior design.png" is not the same as "Interior design\_alternative.png".

### How to upload a **new version** from Google Drive:

**The file must have the same file name as the prior version**. Filestage then recognizes Google Drive's naming convention, **automatically adding a (2)** behind the original name.  
Example:

# Export approved files back to Google Drive

Once you finish your review and achieve approval from your reviewers, you can use the Google Drive integration to automatically upload the approved file back into your Google Drive.

If you tick the corresponding box in the process of selecting the Google Drive Folder, the upload of the approved file will be automatically done! 🎉

You then can find the approved files in an automatically created subfolder called **Approved Files**, followed by the name of your project:
