How Google Drive Works

Google drive is a platform which can store piles of data on the cloud. It is very reliable and user-friendly. Since Salesforce needs data to analyze and generate reports, thus integration of Salesforce with Google drive is the requirement of many organization. Files Connect is an application which helps in integration of Salesforce with Google Drive in a simple and efficient way. Files Connect can be used to integrate Salesforce with other applications like Google Apps, SharePoint App, OneDrive, etc.

Prerequisites

  • The user has to assign a SkyvvaAllPermissions set to the current user.
  • The user has to add skyvvasolutions namespace inside callout logic.
  • Supports Asynchronous mode, Asynchronous mode is a switching technique used by SKYVVA that uses asynchronous time-division multiplexing to encode data into small, fixed-sized cells.  An Asynchronous mode is working as when you make a request and whatever the result. Whether you failed or succeed just call the function SKYVVA gonna give you a call back code. So Asynchronous never waits for a call to come back in order to execute the rest of the code.

Google Drive is a cloud storage service that allows users to save files and access them from anywhere. From SKYVVA v2.48, we have the capability to allow the users to back up their data directly from Salesforce to keep on Google Drive. Besides sending data to google drive we can also read data from Google drive back to Salesforce. The user can transform their data to any file format such as CSV, XML, or JSON. They can save their data to Google Drive manually or automatically from our Control Board.
