Admin settings [GD JD]

Administrators can adjust how the Google Drive Connector app works to meet your team's needs and comply with company policies. 




About the Administrator Settings

As the name implies, these settings are only visible to users with Administrator privileges. All the settings on this page are accessible by entering the “Apps” section on Jira settings and then clicking the "Google Drive Settings" link on the sidebar.



Attachments layout options

By default, the files and folders attached to Jira issues use a regular header and appear in the collapsed view to use less space on the screen. It’s easy to preview the file by clicking the arrow to open the expanded view, which uses the width of the page and is 464px tall by default, or clicking the file name (or preview button) to open the full-screen preview.

The Admin can set different defaults for new issues in the Admin settings section dedicated to the preview options.

Attachment header

Select the default size for the header of attachments:

  • Regular: The standard size for the header of attached files and folders. It shows a big icon and additional details;

  • Compact: Uses a smaller icon and only shows the name of the file or folder;

  • Hidden for files: Completely hides the file header and forces the expanded preview option. Moving the mouse over the file will show a compact header.


Preview height

Select the default height for the preview:

  • Regular: The standard height for previews (464px);

  • Custom: Define a value for the height of the preview area.


Preview default visibility

Select the default behavior for the preview:

  • Collapsed: The standard option that hides the preview;

  • Expanded: Automatically shows the preview of files and folders. This option is required when selecting the “Hidden for files” header.

Changes to these settings are saved automatically and applied immediately.
