Introduction

Google has changed the way API services connect to their accounts. This in turn has caused previously connected accounts to no longer work. If you are receiving a message on your workflow indicating you must create a new Google Drive connection, then this guide will provide a step-by-step walkthrough to ensure that your new sync setup is successful without any conflicts from previous configurations.

Step 1: Pause and Delete Your Current Syncs
 

Ensure a clean slate by pausing and removing any existing syncs.

• 1.1 Pause Your Sync: Find and pause your current sync to avoid any data mishandling.
• 1.2 Remove Your Sync: Safely remove the paused sync from your system.
• 1.3 Manage Other Syncs: For any other syncs, visit API Nation Workflows and repeat the pause and remove process.

Step 2: Remove Google Drive Connection
 

Disconnect from Google Drive to clear the way for a new backup strategy.

• Navigate to Google Drive Connections.
• Click the trash icon next to the connection you wish to delete.

Step 3: Open the Setup Wizard
 

Set up your new backup configuration with ease.

• Access the setup wizard at dotloop-Google Drive Backup Setup and follow the instructions to configure your new sync.

Important Note
 

Be aware that initiating a new sync will not recognize previously backed-up data. A new folder will be created in your Google Drive for the new backup. By default, this folder will be located under "API Nation" > "dotloop".
