Google Drive for Students

Schools can enable students to submit files from the their Google Drive accounts to the drop box for assignments. However, you will first need to ensure that your school has created a Google Project to manage the authentication process. Google recommends using a Googleaccount that is solely dedicated to the administration of Google Projects, rather than an account tied to a specific person.

Follow the steps below to not only create that project within Google, but to enable to configure the required API credentials.

Note: Schools do not need Google Apps or any other Google integration in order to use Google Drive.

Tip: Watch the video demonstration on YouTube.

  1. Select Core > Settings > Integration settings > Google drive.

  2. Follow the directions on screen which involve API Key and Client ID creation.
