Add Google Drive connectors
Before you begin to add a connector, consider the following points:
Perform the prerequisites to add a Google Drive connector.
Understand the backup capabilities of the Google Drive connectors.
If group email addresses are added to the scope for specific users, the connector will retrieve the users in the group and back up their data. Similarly, group email addresses added to the Excluded Users scope will also be processed in the same manner.
Understand the limitations of the Google Drive connector.
Each tab in the connector creation workflow includes a help icon (?) on the left. Click this icon to open the corresponding help topic for that tab, which guides you through the setup process step by step.
Procedure:
- Access the Administration portal and select the connector type.
Access the Administration portal.
Click Connectors on the Backup card.
Click New backup connector.
Click GoogleDrive.
- On the General tab, set up the basic configuration for the connector.
- On the Capture scope tab, configure the capture scope.
- On the Credentials tab, configure the credentials as follows:
Admin User SMTP
Enter the SMTP address of a user who has Admin API permissions.
Credentials JSON
Paste the content from a JSON file, which is generated as part of the prerequisites.
