Oftentimes, clients have Google Drive documents and photos that they need to share access to with our team. Google Drive is essentially another version of storage like Dropbox, and many clients use it to upload photos, documents, videos in one place that is not accessible by anyone with the link to the drive. They may share access with our team as a whole initially in order to grant access as needed to other Accordus team members.
Remember:
- Items that Accordus creates should be owned and organized in the Accordus Google Drive account.
- Items that clients want to share to a personal Google Drive account:
- Ask them to share a direct link instead and then download the files from the Google link to your computer, then to the client’s Dropbox folder in the Accordus account.
- Have the client share access for any folders or files to [email protected] and use the Keeper login to access the Accordus Google Drive and download necessary files for our team.
Please make sure the client shares access to [email protected] and not your personal Accordus Google account. This allows the entire Accordus team to have access without an individual team member having to share access with the rest of the team.
Please watch the video below for a short example of how to find the items shared with this account. Once you have access to the client’s Drive via the googledrive@accordus Google account, A. you can share it with yourself via your Accordus Google account which should have been created during onboarding or B. download and upload the files to Dropbox.
All team members should have access to the shared mailbox [email protected] if a verification code is needed. Click here for a tutorial on how to access a shared mailbox.
