Add Google Drive connector to Qlik Application Automation

It would be useful to have a Google Drive connector, like those for Dropbox and OneDrive.

@Daniele_Purrone , unfortunately for many Google services they have extraordinary requirements and cost associated with creating an approved connector. As a result, this connector is not currently planned.

Any plans yet?

Kind of strange that we can use Google drive when using Webconnectors or direct connectors for loading data, and it is not available using Application Automation.

@Jeffrey_Goldberg I would like to know about that too, at the company that i work for we are waiting for that connector as well because we use google drive a lot.

@Jeffrey_Goldberg I don't get why I can connect directly from Qlik Sense script, able to read and write data on a Google Drive.

So I don't really understand why Qlik Automations could not have a connector because of "extraordinary requirements"

Hi @p_verkooijen ,
I'm afraid it's still in "Not Planned" status. I can only see 6 likes to the post, so the demand seems to be low. Please share it to anyone you might know to be interested so that it can get traction.

Hello, someone has info on how to make it work with the google storage copy file block? I have tried to replicate my exact but from Dropbox changing to Google storage and despite I try to adjust everything it has not worked at all

@Daniele_Purrone see that since march 20th, 9 new users found this interesting, more than doubled the amount.

Don't get why such a basic connector is available in Sense (CM and SaaS connectors), Webconnectors for ages and adding to Automations wait's for likes that I have to find myself.

Hi @p_verkooijen , thanks for your feedback! The product management team decides what goes in in the product.
Tagging @Jeffrey_Goldberg for possible feeback.

Here's another user needing it for his clients ... guess I'll have to wait for likes too! Totally agree with the other comments on this.

@Daniele_Purrone @Jeffrey_Goldberg
Any news regarding using Google Drive with Automations? This seems like a crucial and fundamental feature. Most companies are either using the Microsoft Suite or the Google Suite. Not being able to distribute automations to Google Drive hinders us in many use cases forcing us to do more manual tasks (downloading attachments and storing them on the drive for other to consume).

Kind regards, Jonathan

Hi,

I also need this connector.

Qlik is delivering amazing features without asking users to vote. I don't understand why a connection to such important cloud platform has been delayed for years. We are talking about Google!!!!

As a Qlik Partner, I find it difficult to explain my customer that I can't store a file in Google Drive.

Please, could you review your position?

Thanks,

Cecilia.
