Auto-attach receipt photos from Google Photos to Navan expenses

Starting promptUse this prompt as a starting point to build your workflow.

Build a workflow (scheduled or on-demand) that searches a user's Google Photos for images identified as receipts within a date range. For each receipt, create a draft expense in Navan or attach it to a matching existing entry. Avoid re-uploading the same image by tracking processed photo IDs, handle non-receipt images gracefully, and retry upload failures. Output a list of receipts uploaded and the Navan entries they were attached to.

What this prompt builds

Find receipt images in Google Photos and push them into Navan as draft expenses automatically.

The problem

Employees lose reimbursable receipts or put off expense filing because matching photos to entries is manual drudgery. Finance ends up with incomplete reports and month-end scrambles.

Solution and impact

This workflow scans Google Photos for receipt images and sends them to Navan to start an expense draft or attach to an existing entry. Receipts get captured at the source, cutting filing friction and improving expense completeness.
