Google Drive

What is the Google Drive Connection?

The Google Drive connection connects your Google account to Duvo, enabling your assignments to manage files, folders, and share documents on your behalf. This is a user-configured connection—you'll need to connect your Google account before your assignments can use it.

What Can It Do?

The Google Drive connection provides actions that allow your assignments to:

• Search files: Find documents, spreadsheets, and files across your Drive

• Create folders: Organize files by generating new folder structures

• Upload files: Add documents and files to specific locations

• Download files: Retrieve files from Drive for processing

• Share files: Manage permissions and sharing settings for documents and folders

Why This Matters

Google Drive is the central hub for document storage and collaboration in many organizations. The Google Drive connection allows your assignments to organize files, manage shared resources, and ensure documents are properly stored and accessible—eliminating manual file management and ensuring consistent organization.

When to Use It

Use the Google Drive connection when your assignment needs to:

• Organize files: Create project folders, client directories, or structured file systems automatically

• Store results: Upload generated reports, processed documents, or workflow outputs to the right location

• Retrieve documents: Find and download files for processing or analysis

• Manage sharing: Control who has access to specific documents or folders

• Maintain structure: Keep Drive organized with consistent folder hierarchies and file naming

How It Works

After connecting your Google account, your assignments can access your Drive using your logins and permissions. When you include Google Drive actions in your assignment's SOP, it will manage files and folders just as you would—creating organized structures, uploading documents to the right places, and ensuring proper access control.
