Google Drive

Connect Google Drive so Darcy Chat and AI agents can search, read, create, and update your Drive files

The Google Drive integration lets Darcy Chat and AI agents find, read, create, and update files in your Google Drive through natural conversation. It's a personal, user-level connection: you sign in to Google and grant DarcyIQ access, and the connection works with your Drive only.

Your documents, in the conversation: Say "Find the latest proposal in my Drive and summarize the pricing section," and Darcy locates the file, reads it, and gives you the summary — then can save an updated version straight back to Drive.

Beta: Google Drive is currently a Beta integration available under Settings → Integrations.

Connecting Google Drive

Connecting is a one-time OAuth sign-in. DarcyIQ never sees your Google password — authentication happens on Google's own consent screen.

3

Sign in to Google You're redirected to Google's sign-in and consent screen. Choose the account whose Drive you want to use.

To revoke access later, disconnect the integration in DarcyIQ and/or remove DarcyIQ from your Google account's third-party access settings.

Using Google Drive in Chat & Agents

Once connected, Google Drive is available wherever Darcy can use tools:

• Darcy Chat — ask Darcy to find, read, create, or update files in plain language.

• AI Agents — agents can read source material from Drive or save generated files back to it.

• AI Workflows — automate document steps such as archiving outputs to a Drive folder.
