Integrating Collect with Google Drive

Introduction

We are thrilled to unveil a significant new feature for Collect users: the integration with Google Drive! This integration aims to synchronize documents uploaded on the Collect portal directly with Google Drive, ensuring your files are always up-to-date and easily accessible. As this feature marks a significant advancement in our platform's capabilities, we're diligently working with Google to ensure the integration operates smoothly and securely for all users.

Current Integration Status

The integration between Collect and Google Drive is in its early stages, and we're in the midst of obtaining full approval from Google. During this phase, the integration does not require email whitelisting but remains unverified by Google.

Warning Message

As the integration is still unverified, users might encounter a warning message when attempting to use it. This is a standard precaution by Google to protect users from potentially harmful apps. For more details on unverified apps, you can refer to this Google Support Article.

How to Gain Access

To ensure a seamless experience for users wishing to utilize this integration during its initial phase, follow these steps:

Navigate to Integration Page: Go to the integration page within Collect.
Connect to Google Drive: Click on "Connect" and follow the on-screen instructions to activate the integration.

Please note that you will encounter a warning message from Google due to the unverified status of the app. You can proceed by acknowledging the message and continuing with the setup.

What to Expect Next

Upon connecting to the Google Drive integration, you will gain access to its functionalities. Please be aware that during this development phase, you might encounter some limitations or changes as we refine the feature. Your feedback is highly valuable and will contribute to the enhancement of this integration.
