Can I connect a Google Workspace (work or school) Google Drive?

Short answer: Often, but Google restricts third-party apps on managed work and school accounts. If you see "This app is blocked", ask your admin to allow it or use your own sign-in credentials if your organisation permits. Personal accounts usually just work.

Often yes, but Google increasingly restricts third-party apps for managed work and school accounts. If you see "This app is blocked", either ask your administrator to allow the app, or use your own sign-in credentials if your organisation lets you create them.

Personal Google accounts usually connect with the built-in defaults — leave the custom fields blank. For managed accounts, the in-app guide under Advanced — custom sign-in credentials walks you through creating credentials; your administrator may need to approve them. Whatever you decide, respect your organisation's rules about copying work data. See the blocked page.
