Alteryx One Google Drive Connector Version 1.0.0
What's New
To align the user experience between Alteryx One and Designer Desktop, we're releasing a new Google Drive connector for Designer Desktop. This connector enables a DCM connection to Google Drive in the Input Data and Output Data tools.
Known Issues
The Google Drive connector supports appending data to Excel sheets only.
The Google Drive connector doesn't support reading data with wildcards or from multiple files, folders, or sheets.
The Google Drive connector doesn't support partitioning with or without metadata. To use partitioning without metadata, use macros.
The Google Drive connector doesn't support selecting a sheet from a dropdown list. You need to type in the sheet name manually.
Authentication Methods
Google Drive supports basic authentication with user's credentials (Sign-in with Google) and advanced custom API app authentication (Sign-in with Google—private).
Sign-in with Google
The basic authentication with email and password is tied to the user's personal Google credentials. You can allow this connection for the SDK.
We don't recommend this type of authentication for scheduling workflows.
Sign-in with Google—private
Advanced authentication leverages the capabilities of custom API applications. For instructions on how to set up the API app, go to our Google Drive API app setup. You can allow this connection for the SDK.
The API apps aren't tied to a specific user, so you can use them more conveniently for scheduling workflows. However, they require one-time authentication when you create a connection in DCM.
Set Up a Connection with DCM
To connect to Google Drive with DCM...
Drag the Input Data or Output Data tool from the tool palette to the canvas and select it.
Select Set Up Connection.
If you've created a Google Drive connection before, you can select Data Sources > Google Drive > Alteryx One Connector (also called Unified Connector)> Google Drive, and skip to step 13.
In the DCM window, select Data Sources.
Find Google Drive and select Alteryx One Connector ( also called Unified Connector).
The Connections window opens.
Select + New to create a connection.
Enter a connection name of your choice.
Designer automatically selects the Google Drive data source details.
Select Save.
Select + New Credential.
Select your authentication method. Refer to the authentication method in the previous section for details.
Select Create and Link. You can also test the connection before linking.
Select Connect next to the Connection of your choice. Google Drive may request authentication.
Select the file to read from or write to in the file browser window.
Select the read or write configuration in the Options window.
Select Confirm to create a connection to the file. You can continue building your workflow.
