Add Google Drive to your Retool app

This tutorial will show how to add Google Drive support to your Retool app using our Files component. Have Retool ready and let's get started.

1. Get access token

For our Weavy component to work, we need an access token from the authentication workflow. 

Go to Code in the left panel, click the + and select Import Workflow

  • Name it getWeavyToken 
  • Select WeavyAuthentication from the Select Workflow dropdown
  • Click the Reset to Example JSON in Workflow parameters
  • Change the Run behavior to Automatic
  • Click Save & Run
  • If successful, you should see an access token in the output window

2. Add Weavy Files

Search for Weavy Files in the components search bar, drag and drop it onto the canvas.

3. Done!

The Weavy Files component should load instantly - but toggle to Preview mode to see the full experience.

Note that this is fully working now and available for all your users if you want - Google Drive support added, just like that
