Option to limit the scope for Google Drive connector to read-only

Share this message

The connection definition to Google Drive can now be set to read-only permission, excluding support for the STORE command in the connector load script. The default setting of this option allows to both read and write, i.e. including use of the STORE command. If there is no need to store data back to Google Drive, the new option can be set to read-only to comply with more restrictive security policies.

This new option is available in the authentication dialog for the file location Google Drive connector (web storage provider).
