The Google Drive integration provides access to the files you manage on Google Drive. In standard versions of Brightspot, this integration provides the following features:

• Google Doc—Can be imported into Brightspot as an article, blog post, document, or a general attachment.
• Google Sheet—Can be imported into Brightspot as sections, tags, users, spreadsheets, or as a general attachment.
• Google Presentation—Can be imported into Brightspot as a presentation.

Once imported, Brightspot checks the source file to detect any changes made after the import. If changes are made, Brightspot indicates this in the Sync widget of an asset created as a result of the import. (For details, see Re-syncing a Google Drive file.) If no changes are detected, Brightspot reports that the source file and the Brightspot asset are in sync.
