Add and Set Up the Google Drive App on yr Wix site
0Here's how to Add and Set Up the Google Drive App on yr Wix site.
i. Here are the main steps to set permissions for Google Drive files and folders:
1. Open Google Drive and locate the file or folder you want to adjust permissions for. Right click on it and select "Share".
2. In the share settings box that opens, click "Advanced" in the lower right corner.
3. This will open detailed sharing options. Under "Access: Private", click "Change to anyone with the link".
4. Choose the access level you want to grant:
- Viewer - Can view but not edit or download
- Commenter - Can view and comment, but not edit/download
- Editor - Can view, comment, and edit but not download
- Is Owner - Full access to edit, share, delete
5. To set access to specific people, enter their emails and choose an access level.
6. Click "Save Changes" when done.
7. Back in the main share box, toggle the link sharing on or off and set a expiration date if desired.
8. Click "Done" to finish setting permissions.
ii. The "Restricted Access" setting in Google Drive refers to limiting access to files or folders to only specific people, rather than anyone with a link.
Here are some key things to know about Restricted Access in Google Drive:
- It means only users who are explicitly granted permission can access the file/folder. The link cannot be reshared.
- You set Restricted Access by going into Share settings and changing from "Anyone with the link" to "Specific people" and entering email addresses.
- With Restricted Access, you can choose whether those people can view, comment, or fully edit the file/folder.
- Those granted Restricted Access do not need to have a Google account to view or access the file.
- If you want to revoke access, you can remove users from the share settings.
- Restricted Access prevents files from being discoverable through search engines or public links.
- It provides more privacy and control than making something "Anyone with the link".
- It's a good option if you want to share files safely with limited people outside your organization.
So in summary, Restricted Access limits file/folder sharing to specific people you choose, rather than anyone with a shared link.
iii. When you share a file or folder in Google Drive with "Anyone with the link," anyone who has the link will be able to access the file or folder, regardless of whether they have a Google account. This means that the file or folder will be publicly available to anyone who has the link, even if they do not have a Google account or have never used Google Drive before.
This sharing setting is useful for sharing files or folders with a wide audience, such as for public documentation, event registration, or sharing large files with colleagues or friends. However, it is important to be aware that anyone with the link will be able to access the file or folder, so you should only share sensitive or confidential information with "Anyone with the link" if you are comfortable with the potential for it to be publicly accessible.
Here are some additional things to keep in mind when sharing a file or folder with "Anyone with the link":
* **Anyone can view, download, and copy the file or folder.**
* **Anyone can share the file or folder with others.**
* **Google will not ask anyone to verify their identity or age before they can access the file or folder.**
If you are concerned about someone sharing the file or folder with others, you can make it read-only so that people can only view the file or folder but not edit or copy it. You can also revoke access to the file or folder at any time by removing the link.
