You can connect your Google Drive account in two ways:


  • Option 1: While creating a workflow (recommended if you're setting up a workflow now)
  • Option 2: From the Connections page (recommended if you're prepping accounts ahead of time)


Option 1: Connect Google Drive During Workflow Creation


  1. Go to the Workflows page and click Create workflow (left side dashboard).
  2. Choose your workflow type (Repurpose New Content or Existing Content).
  3. Select Google Drive as the source (left-menu) or destination (right-menu).
  4. After selecting, two things can happen depending on your situation:
  • If this is your first time connecting a Google Drive account, you’ll be redirected to Google’s account selection page.
  • If you’ve already connected Google Drive accounts to Repurpose, a pop-up will appear with a list of them. Click Add new Google Drive account to connect another one, and you’ll be redirected to Google’s account selection page.


ℹ️ In both cases, you’ll see all Google accounts currently logged into your browser. Select the one linked to your Google Drive, or click Use another account if it’s not listed.


  1. A page will appear showing the permissions being granted. Click Continue to finish connecting your account.


Option 2: Connect Google Drive from the Connections Page


  1. Go to the Connections page from the left side menu.
  2. Click Add a New Connection (top right).
  3. Select Google Drive from the list.
  4. A pop-up will appear where you can optionally edit the connection name.
  5. After clicking Connect, two things can happen depending on your situation:
  • If this is your first time connecting a Google Drive account, you’ll be redirected to Google’s account selection page.
  • If you’ve already connected Google Drive accounts to Repurpose, a pop-up will appear with a list of them. Click Add new Google Drive account to connect another one, and you’ll be redirected to Google’s account selection page.


ℹ️ In both cases, you’ll see all Google accounts currently logged into your browser. Select the one linked to your Google Drive, or click Use another account if it’s not listed.


  1. A page will appear showing the permissions being granted. Click Continue to finish connecting your account.



Note: Google Drive can only be used as a destination when creating a workflow through the Backups option in the left-hand sidebar. Selecting this option will start the workflow creation process and allow you to choose Google Drive as the destination.
