Selected Content Provider Details – Google Drive

This section allows you to configure details of the Google Drive external content provider selected currently in the grid.

It contains the following updateable fields:

      Client ID: this property is mandatory and can be a maximum of 1024 characters in length.

      Client secret: this property is mandatory and can be a maximum of 256 characters in length.

      API key: this property is mandatory and can be a maximum of 256 characters in length.

      Authorization: you must authorize a Google Drive external content provider before it can be saved.

A ‘Click here…’ button is enabled on provision of a Client ID, Client secret and API key.  Clicking it displays a web browser panel.

Having logged into Google, you are asked to confirm RPI’s requests to undertake a series of activities.

Click Accept to proceed.  At the next interface, a code is provided.

Copy the code and click Close Browser.

On returning to RPI, a Code field is displayed at the property.  Paste the copied code into the field and click the Submit button.  The Google Drive provider will then have been successfully authorized.
