Connect Google Drive

Connect Google Drive to find and import research without downloading each file first. This connector is available on Pro and above.

Connect and import

1. Open Settings > Connectors.
2. Find Google Drive and click Connect.
3. Sign in to Google Drive and authorize Anara.
4. Return to Anara and open the connected source's import picker.
5. Select the content you want and complete the import.
6. Check the imported files and their Full text status in your library.

Use the Google account that can access the files you need. Browse the connected Drive and select the files or folders for import. Check the selected account if a shared file is missing.

Ask about your research

Type @ and choose Google Drive to direct the agent to the connected service. To work with copies already imported, open their folder or mention them in chat.

Find the papers relevant to my project in Google Drive. Show me the matches before importing them. Then compare the methods using the full text available in my library.

Keep content current

Imports are copies. Connecting an account does not guarantee every file is imported, and changes in Google Drive do not automatically update those copies. Import new or changed content when needed and check the resulting records.

If a file is missing, check its account, permissions, attachment, and format. Reconnect from Settings if authorization has expired. See troubleshooting for processing failures.
