    Hi,

    Thanks for the plugin.

    I’am using Google Drive. Everything seems to be ok : i can pick a file and it seems to be downloading, but the file is always currupted. Whatever the format : pdf, jpg… the file is created, its name is ok but the file is almost empty (always 516 bytes).

    I also tested the plugin with Dropbox and it’s working fine.

    From my experience one of the following could the reason:
    1. Network issue
    2. Page hasn’t been refreshed for some time
    3. The plugin tries to re-use files whenever possible by matching file name. It could be that the plugin imported corrupted file due to issue 1 or issue 2 and you try import files with the same file name over and over. Make sure you delete those corrupted files and try import again.
    4. Open dev console in your browser and see if google throws errors about OAuth token.
    5. If issue 4 is true – make sure you properly configured your google account to and it is allows connections from the domain name you’re using.

    I feel like your issue is 4 and 5. Please read Google Drive plugin instruction on the settings page.

    Let me know how it goes! Google Drive wasn’t the easiest thing to configure to me, as far as I know you and I not the only ones who have difficulties properly configuring API from a first try.

    Thanks!

    Hi

    Problem solved. I didn’t configure the Drive API properly.

    Everything seemed to be working normally, and i didn’t find any error in the console. But the uploaded files, that i though where corrupted, where actually text files containing an error message from the API.

    Thanks a lot for the plugin and you support.
