With the roll out of the most recent update to SharePoint, SharePoint 2013, Microsoft introduced
many key changes. One of which was the introduction of the new SharePoint 2013 App Store.
The App Store has piqued the interest of many SharePoint users.
One SharePoint app, developed by Metalogix, is Metalogix Drive 2 Office 365. It enables
SharePoint users to easily import documents and files from Google Drive to Office 365. Anyone
can move Google Drive content into Office 365’s SharePoint environment by using the app.
Metalogix Drive 2 Office 365 allows users to browse and search their Google Drive directly
from within SharePoint for files. Users can select and import documents and files without ever
leaving SharePoint. Metalogix Drive 2 Office 365 can also import Google Docs as well as any
other files and content stored in Google Drive.
Here are some key functionalities of the Metalogix Drive 2 Office 365 app:
File selection
Users can select a single file or multiple files from their Google Drive content, and easily import
as little or as much content as is needed.
Move content
Once content is selected, it is then imported with one click. Users can import content without
having to save it locally first and then import the content later.
View Google Drive content from SharePoint
The app will pull up a list of content in Google Drive. Users can view that content by file and
filter based on content type. This allows for a seamless experience.
Install into ribbon
The Drive 2 Office 365 application installs into the ribbon and will be visible to users when they
are on document management SharePoint pages making the app very easy to use.
