Connectors
Google Drive
Connect all of your docs, sheets, slides, drawings, and other files through Glean’s integration capabilities with Google Drive.
Overview
Google Drive provides easy and secure access to any files and folders that you have stored or shared on your phone, tablet, or computer. Glean seamlessly connects to Google Drive via authentication by a service account, so you can search for all your files directly in your workhub. Glean understands all user access permissions and strictly enforces permissions for users at the time of the query, which ensures that users are not able to see results which they do not have access to. It’s important to note that all data is stored in the GCP project in your cloud account, and no data leaves your environment.
