Using google drive for uploads

Is it possible to use google drive to store images uploaded to discourse?

Does Google let you serve files directly yet? Aren’t they still always wrapped in the web UI?

Not sure. I’ve always used google drive from a desktop.
I’ve been told folders from a google drive can be shared between two clients.
It’s probable the google drive could be mounted into a unix tree … that would get around needing private access to read write - as far as discourse would be concerned it would local storage.

I’ll have a play with GitHub - odeke-em/drive: Google Drive client for the commandline and see how it goes.

Yes it possible

No direct link
But there’s redirect link

And embed video

I think it must save as image:driveID and video: driveID

And render it itu img and IFrame

The folder to upload must be shared public
