Open the

Team Files

Google Drive Connector app

You can install the Team Files Google Drive Connector app from the Atlassian Marketplace, then open it by clicking the Team Files Google Drive Connector link on Confluence’s sidebar, and it's ready to use.


Connect your first folder

You don't need to create an account to use the app. The only thing required is to connect at least one folder to the Confluence Space so that you can start collaborating with your team and build your single source of truth.

Info

If there's already a folder connected when you first open the app, that means someone in your team already shared a folder, and you can use that one or add more, following the same steps.
