Create Google Drive integration

This guide provides instructions on configuring the Google Drive integration in the Platform Admin UI. It is intended for the WPP Open Support Team and outlines the steps necessary to set up and complete integration after the client has provided the required Client ID, Client Secret, and Service Account.

Important notes

  • If a Google integration already exists, it cannot be added a second time. Its creation will only be possible after the previous Google integration is removed.
  • If the tenant is already configured for the File Manager to use a different integration, the current integration must be unlinked — this can only be done by the development team. The WPP Open Support Team must contact the File Management team. This is temporary; in the future, the unlinking process may be available in the UI.
  • If Google Drive is enabled, GCP integration cannot be used (only the development team can disable it).
  • If a client decides to switch to Google Drive integration, note that there is no automatic migration of existing files. This transition must be coordinated directly with the client.
    They are responsible for manually downloading any files stored in the current system and uploading them to their connected Google Drive environment.
