Google Drive Integrations

Does your team use Google Drive? Kipwise’s Google Drive integrations connect it, so a single search returns relevant results from both places. You can also embed Google Drive files on Kipwise Pages to create more informative documentation. 

How Kipwise’s Google Drive integrations work

After connecting your Google Drive, your entire Google Drive will be searchable directly within Kipwise! You can filter the search results by sources and more advanced filters. This also works for our Kipwise search command on Slack and our Chrome extension. Each teammate will have to set up the Google Drive integration for themselves so that they will only be able to see the Google Drive files that they have the right to access. 

One thing to watch for: connecting the integration as a team admin is not enough on its own. Google Drive results only show up in search for teammates who have personally linked their own Google account, since Kipwise only surfaces files each person already has permission to view. If someone says search “isn’t working,” check whether they connected their own Drive account before assuming the team-level integration is broken.

Besides unified search, our Google Drive integration also makes it easy for you to embed Google Drive files on a Kipwise Page to create more informative documentation. Simply type plus Google Drive and you will be able to search for the Google Drive files that you want to embed by keywords. The embeds are real-time live embeds, so you can see the changes instantly and you can edit your embedded Sheets, Slides and Docs directly on Kipwise!
