Connect to your Google Drive to store plain files.
Authentication
Google Drive uses OAuth 2 to allow Cyberduck to access your files on Google Drive. Choose your account email as the username in the bookmark and choose Allow on the website opened in your default web browser to allow Cyberduck to View and manage the files in your Google Drive. Copy the authentication code displayed into the login prompt.
Multiple Accounts
You can connect to multiple accounts at the same time. Create a new bookmark for every account and run through the OAuth flow. Make sure to log out in your browser prior setting up a new bookmark to make sure the new bookmark is linked to a newly authenticated account.
OAuth Reset
If you have accidentally logged in with the wrong Google Drive Account or want to change the login of the Google Drive bookmark you can reset the OAuth token by deleting the entries related to https://Google Drive (user)@accounts.google.com out of the Windows Credential Manager or on macOS out of Keychain.
