Google Drive App Administrator Guide (Enterprise Only)
Google Drive LTI App
The Google Drive app is a new Resource App from Google, now available in Schoology from the App Center. Resource apps enable you to integrate third-party content directly into the Resource Center. This means that all of your personal, shared, public and external instructional resources are consolidated in one place. With this integration you can:
- Access your Google Drive content from your Schoology Resources.
- Add Google Drive content directly within Schoology and sync to Google Drive.
- Add content from the Google Drive app to a course or resources.
- Import your Google Drive content directly within courses and groups.
- Use as an alternative to the Google Drive Resource App from Schoology.
- Control how users in your organization share Google Drive files.
- Add your Google Drive content to updates, discussions, assignments, pages, and tests.
- Accept submissions from students who are connected to Google Drive.
- The Google Drive app by Google can be used as an alternative to the Google Drive Resource App by Schoology.
- The Google Drive app is a separate app from the Google Assignments App by Google.
