Google Drive Integration

Integrate Google Drive with AgencyPro to share files, embed folders, and sync project deliverables directly in your client portal. Clients see the latest versions of documents, designs, and assets without email attachments or version conflicts. Permissions are controlled through Google Drive's native sharing system, keeping security and compliance simple.

Why Connect Google Drive with AgencyPro?

Email attachments are the enemy of version control. Every "v2_FINAL_revised.pdf" in a client's inbox is a moment of confusion waiting to happen. Embedding a Google Drive folder in the client portal solves this by giving clients a single, always-up-to-date source of truth for every file related to their project. When you update a file in Drive, it's instantly the latest version in their portal — no email required. Clients can preview Docs, Sheets, images, and PDFs without downloading. And because access flows through Google's own sharing settings, you control exactly who sees what. For agencies handling brand assets, design files, or contractual documents, an embedded Drive folder replaces a chaotic file-sharing process with something clients actually enjoy using.

How Agencies Use Google Drive with AgencyPro

Deliverables hub for active projects

Create a Google Drive folder per project and embed it in the client portal. As you add deliverables, clients see them instantly — no emailing links or wondering if they got the latest version.

Brand asset library clients can self-serve

Share a "Brand Assets" folder containing logos, fonts, brand guidelines, and approved imagery. Clients download what they need without asking your team, saving hours of repetitive requests.

Collaborative document review and approval

Share Google Docs or Slides with comment permissions. Clients leave feedback directly in the document, right alongside the project in their portal.

How to Set Up Google Drive

  1. In Google Drive, open the folder or file you want to share and set link sharing to "Anyone with the link" (view or comment)
  2. Copy the shareable Drive link
  3. In AgencyPro, go to Settings → Extensions → Add extension
  4. Choose a Custom Iframe (or External Link) extension and give it a label like "Project Files"
  5. Paste the Drive link, choose whether it appears for a client or your team, and save
  6. The folder now shows as a tab in the client portal

Frequently Asked Questions

Do clients need a Google account to view shared files?

No. If you set the folder to "Anyone with the link can view", clients see it embedded in the portal without signing in. For comment or edit access, a Google account is required.

How much storage do I get?

Storage is provided by Google. Personal Google accounts include 15GB free. Google Workspace Business plans start at 30GB per user and scale higher. Embedding a folder in AgencyPro adds no storage cost of its own.

Can I control which clients see which folders?

Yes. Each embedded folder is added as an extension scoped to a specific client (or your team), so clients only see the folders you share with them. You can also revoke access anytime by changing the folder's Drive sharing settings.

Does this work with Google Docs and Sheets too?

Yes. Any file in Google Drive (Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs, images, videos) can be previewed in the embedded folder. Google-native formats display with full editing capability if you grant edit access.

Is this a replacement for Dropbox or OneDrive?

It depends on your stack. If your agency uses Google Workspace, embedding a Drive folder is the natural fit. If you use Dropbox or OneDrive, you can embed their shared links the same way via a Custom Iframe extension.
