Google Drive

The @uppy/google-drive plugin lets users import files from their Google Drive account.

A Companion instance is required for the @uppy/google-drive plugin to work. Companion handles authentication with Google, downloads files from the Drive and uploads them to the destination. This saves the user bandwidth, especially helpful if they are on a mobile connection.

const GoogleDrive = require('@uppy/google-drive')

uppy.use(GoogleDrive, {
  // Options
})
