Summary

Overview

Google Drive is a cloud-based storage solution that allows users to store and manage files and data within Google Workspace. With its many features, managing data in Google Drive can sometimes be time-consuming. However, you can automate a variety of file and folder management tasks, such as uploads, versioning, and update notifications.

To set up your connection with Google Drive instance your first need to authenticate. Detailed information on how to create a secure connection is available on the Google Drive authentication page.

The Google Drive connector supports events via polling, which allows you to receive updates on changes and activities within your Drive. For more information on the events supported by the Google Drive connector, refer to the Google Drive events page.

You can use the connection to enable the Drive activities from the Google Workspace activity package in UiPath Studio. This allows you to execute operations such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting objects in your Google Drive, as well as build automations to interact with your Google Drive data.

The UiPath connector is compatible with Google Drive API v3, and you can find more details on how to use it in the Google Drive documentation platform.
