Google Drive cannot export Google files (Docs, Sheets, Slides) over a certain size (approximately 10 MB) due to a limitation in the Google API. When a translation of any of those types of files is completed and uploaded back to Google Drive, they are automatically converted back into their native Google format. The connector converts these file types to. Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Slides use specialized file formats that Memsource does not support. The connector uses the Google Drive API to implement the integration.
Google Drive connector allows the downloading of source files and uploading of target files directly to/from personal and shared Google Drive repositories. Google Drive is a cloud-based file storage and synchronization service designed to integrate with most operating systems and devices, sync content in real-time across multiple devices, and act as a backup data repository for data.
