Permissions
To connect your Atomicwork and Google Drive accounts, you need:
Atomicwork admin access: You need org admin access in Atomicwork.
Google Drive admin access: You need to be an admin for the Google Drive account, allowing you to manage permissions.
Atomicwork requires specific Google Workspace permissions to function properly, including:
Access to your Google Drive files to read and download documents
Visibility into who files are shared with (e.g., users or groups)
Access to group details (such as members, roles, and metadata) to accurately map file sharing and ownership across your organization
Roles
Org admins are responsible for integrating Google Drive with Atomicwork.
Workspace admins can connect Google Drive folders/files from shared drives to configure workspace topics. They can control employee download permissions but cannot modify file access, as Google Drive remains the source of truth.
End-users will be able to search for and access only files they have permissions for in Google Drive.
Setup
As an Atomicwork admin, navigate to Settings > App Store > Google Drive, and click on Connect. You will be redirected to Google's authentication page.
Sign in with the Google Drive admin account and grant the necessary permissions.
Once authenticated, you will be redirected back to Atomicwork with a confirmation message.
Disconnecting your Google Drive account
Navigate to Settings > App Store > Google Drive.
Click Disconnect and confirm the action in the pop-up dialog.
Once disconnected, employees will no longer be able to search for or access Google Drive files in Atomicwork.
