Assigning Attachments

 
Assigning an attachment folder to a lot is done by adding a Google Drive folder ID to the lot as an external resource. First, be sure to activate Google Drive on your account and then sign in with Google. After that follow the steps below to add your attachments.
 
Assigning Attachments
11. <TODO : Control Name>
Retrieve the ID for your Google Drive folder with the following steps.
  • Open and sign in to Google Drive from your browser.
  • Navigate to the folder you want to assign in PlatWidget and open the folder to view its contents.
  • Once the folder is open its ID will be visible at the end of the URL string displayed in the browser's address bar. The ID is all of the characters from the last forward slash "/" to the end of the string. In this example it is everything after "folders/".
    (e.g. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15z1Q-PkKtlQPvAF728AncQdwD5XA5u)
  • Select and copy the ID to be pasted into PlatWidget.

Click the "Click to Test" button to view the folder contents within PlatWidget. Any files that are currently in the folder on Google Drive will be displayed. If the folder does not load, try the following to correct the issue.

  • Verify that you are currently signed in with Google.
  • Verify that the Google account you've signed in with has permission to view the folder on Google Drive.
