Set default Google Drive folder per project
Jill Bucher
I would love to be able to set a specific folder in Google Drive as the default folder for a project. That way I can easily access all docs inside, create new files directly into that folder and also narrow the view for my clients to access only the files relevant to their project.
Teamwork does this very well. Not only can you determine the specific folder per project, you can also set the privacy settings as to who as access to it.
I can also allow my clients to upload files directly into that Google Drive folder (right inside the project in Teamwork). That makes it really easy for my clients to see everything in one place.

This is a great idea. I have been looking for a way to connect/designate a particular folder in my shared drive per folder in ClickUp. Can we make this happen ClickUp!?

100% this! We came from Teamwork too and it's something that was done very well. The integration with CU is clunky at best since you have to go to your drive directly to upload anything. The only thing it's good for is to connect a file that's already there.

Idem for me!!!

I would also like to do this. I just linked my Google drive and ClickUp has access to every file in Google drive. There should just be a location only ClickUp access. Until this is put into the s/w I am unable to use Google storage for ClickUp files. ClickUp is far superior to Teamwork, which we just removed ourselves from, but lacking Teamwork in this feature/function.

It should be great to get the point of view of the Clickup team about this ? Maybe there is another way to use Google drive, please suggest.
Anyway, we need this feature or something to handle it better
Meghan McCracken
Yes, we need this.

Yes, I think if ClickUp can support a custom fields to support Google Drive folder would be great. That way anywhere we need to point to a GDrive folder, we can create the custom field that can be linked to the GDrive folder location.

I think for me, the key use of this is when teams are using a shared google drive folder.
The current Google Drive folder system is not intuitive, and I can't find a simple way of uploading to a specific folder - everything seems to be automatically uploaded to my root folder! This becomes an issue when we're trying to save files to specific folders as a team, as the files themselves become hidden in each person's personal root folder. It's not sustainable as people transition in and out of the team.

This would be awesome, and I would expect more users would love this if they have large amounts of files/docs in Google Drive across many projects! Bring it on Zeb 😁
