Connecting Google Drive

Updated View as Markdown

Connecting Google Drive lets Indent find, read, create, and organize the files your Google account can access. That includes Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides. Indent connects through its own Google-verified OAuth app, so you don’t need to set anything up in Google Cloud.

Connect Google Drive

Open the integrations page

Connect your account

Select Connect personal account. Google Drive connections are personal, so they work only in a private session.

Authorize with Google

Sign in with the Google account Indent should use and approve the requested access.

What Indent can access

Indent asks Google for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive scope. With that scope, Indent can see, edit, create, and delete the Drive files your Google account can access. Indent uses the scope only when you ask it to work with Drive.

Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Contacts, and Google Meet connect the same way from their own cards in Integrations.

Troubleshooting

  • If your Google Workspace admin restricts third-party apps, ask the admin to allow Indent in the Google Admin console.
  • To change the connected Google account, disconnect Google Drive and connect it again with the other account.
