Google Drive policy
A Google Drive policy contains the connection details that are used by a Google Drive Request node when connecting to Google Drive.
You can use a Google Drive Request node in a message flow to connect IBM® App Connect Enterprise to Google Drive and issue requests to send, delete, or retrieve emails, or update email labels. The Google Drive policy controls, at run time, access to the Google Drive application.
The Google Drive policy is created when you configure a connection between a Google Drive Request node and Google Drive by using the Connector Discovery wizard. During
the process of discovery, account credentials are stored in the vault and connection details are
stored in a Google Drive policy. The policy is created with a type of Google Drive,
and the name of the policy is returned to the Google Drive Request node and specified in the Connection tab of
the node, in the format
{policyProjectName}:policyName.
You can also create, update, or delete a Google Drive policy by using the Manage Discovery Connector Policies and Credentials wizard, which you can access by right-clicking the policy project in the IBM App Connect Enterprise Toolkit and then clicking .
You must deploy this policy before message flows that use the policy are started. If you redeploy a Google Drive policy, all message flows that are using the policy will be stopped and restarted.
