Google’s official guidanceLinking documents directly from OneDrive or Google Drive offers a convenient way to manage your files within ISMS.online. This integration allows you to keep your work centralised without duplicating content, making it especially helpful for users who already store their documents in cloud-based systems.

Please note: Documents added in this way will appear as links and will not be included in exports or display additional metadata like those added as linked work.





How to Use


How to Use the Integration

To add a document from OneDrive or Google Drive:

  • Go to the Documents section within any area that supports document uploads (e.g. an Activity).
  • Click ‘Add from OneDrive’ or ‘Add from Google Drive’.



You’ll be prompted to sign in to your Microsoft or Google account to authenticate access.

Browser Tips:

  • Some browsers may block the sign-in pop-up by default. Look out for a prompt to allow the pop-up and follow your browser’s instructions to enable it.
  • If you're already signed in to your Microsoft or Google account, you may not need to authenticate again.


Once authenticated, your OneDrive or Google Drive will open, allowing you to browse and select your file. Click ‘Open’to add it. The file will then appear in your Documents area as a clickable link that opens directly in OneDrive or Google Drive.:


Additional Notes

If you are using Google’s Advanced Protection on your account, it may block access to the Google Drive integration. For steps to enable access, please refer to Google’s official guidance.
