To connect a Google Drive account, from the home screen select Integrations from the left-hand bar and here you will see the Google Drive connection.

You have two options when it comes to integrating with Google Drive

  1. Brand / Company level

    Select connect, when doing this you will be connecting Google Drive at a brand level so everyone within your brand will have access to the Google Drive connection.

When selecting Connect you will then be asked to select which Google Drive folders you would like to share. You can also select subfolders.

2. Individual / Personal level

In addition to the shared folders, you will also be presented with the option to connect to your Personal drive.


To Add Files or Media from Your Google Drive

All widgets (except integration widgets) to which you can add content can support files from Google Drive.

To add in a file, select to add media and in the content library pop up you will see there is now a Google Drive tab (Google Drive - User if you have connected personal / individual drive).

Select the folder and file you wish to add to the widget


When using a shared drive, a prompt will appear for you to make sure the file has public settings. If the setting isn't public then the file may not be visible to all viewers.

For an individual drive, the permissions do not need to be changed for a Google doc, PDF or slide deck.

They do need to be changed for image, video or Google sheet.
