Overview

The Google Drive integration syncs all your documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and stored files into PipesHub’s unified knowledge layer. Every file — Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs, images, and more — becomes fully searchable with paragraph-level and cell-level citations. Teams can instantly access insights across shared drives, team folders, and individual workspaces without manually navigating Drive.

How it works

Authenticate Google Drive through Google Workspace and choose which folders, shared drives, or user directories to sync. PipesHub indexes text, tables, speaker notes, comments, images (via OCR), and file metadata.
Whenever a file changes in Drive, PipesHub automatically re-indexes only the updated content to keep search results accurate and fresh. Drive permissions are mirrored exactly, ensuring users only see the files they already have access to.

Configure

• Admins enable the Google Drive connector under Google Workspace settings.

• Folder scopes, shared drive access, and indexing frequency can be configured per workspace.

• All file-level and folder-level permissions follow Google Workspace access controls automatically.
