How to set up Google Drive Integration

To enable BizCentric to upload backups to Google Drive, you must authorize BizCentric to upload files to your Google Drive account. Setting up Google Drive Integration involves the following steps:

  1. Generate OAuth 2.0 Credentials through Google Settings.
  2. Navigate to the Google Drive list and select “New.” Specify the name of the Backup folder for saving backups on Google Drive, set the backup frequency, provide the email address for receiving backup status notifications, and then save the settings.
  3. Click on “Authorize Drive Access” to grant BizCentric permission to upload files to Google Drive.
  4. Once authorization is complete, you can proceed to save your backups directly to Google Drive.

How to use Google Drive Integration

Uploading backup to Google Drive

  • After successfully integrating with Google Drive, you can upload both the system backup and all your public and private files to Google Drive.
  • To initiate data backup to Google Drive, simply click on “Take Backup.” The backup process will execute in the background, and you will receive notifications regarding the backup status.

Note: If the compressed backup size exceeds 1GB (gigabyte), the system will upload the latest available backup to Google Drive instead of generating a new backup file.
