Google Drive
The Google Drive app is blocked on my Readynas 104. How can I set up a sync to Google Drive now?
In order to assist others, let me see if I have this straight: The Google drive software on the ReadyNAS is out of date, and Google no longer allows new instances of it being used, but has grandfathered in (intentionally or not) those that currently have it running?
If that's the case, then Google could disable it in the future for existing users. Microsoft did just that with the ReadyNAS OneDrive software not too long ago.
Yes, that appears to be my experience. I was given the alternatives of
- Revoking the EXISTING permissions in my Google account and then attempt to re-sign in to Google and try again
- Using Google Drive for windows
- Using rconsole
Unfortunately I don't have the chat transcript, but (1) did not work and I no longer have the permission described in my earlier post and 2 is useless, but 3 does work, although I understand that the authentication token may expire and require re-auth and it's a bit of a pain to set up.
