### Frequently Asked Questions

**__What caption is used when publishing content from Google Drive?__**
Since Google Drive does not have a caption field, the **file name** will be used as the default caption when the content is published to the destination platform.

**__Can I use a custom caption when publishing from Google Drive?__**
Yes. You can use a custom caption by creating a **.txt file** with the text you want to use as the caption. Place the .txt file in the same folder as the video and make sure it has the **exact same filename** as the video file. Repurpose will detect the .txt file and use its content as the caption when publishing the video.

### How to Select a Folder

When creating a workflow, you simply need to click on the folder where the files are located and press **Select**. You don’t need to open the folder. The pop-up will only show folders, not files. Once selected, all the contents of that folder will be imported into the workflow.
