By connecting Google Drive, the **files and folders you choose, one by one**, sync with your agent's **knowledge base** (Manual 21 · Knowledge base) — the agent uses them exactly like a document you'd uploaded by hand, with the "Search documents" tool it already uses today. This integration is different from the others in two ways: - **It doesn't add any new tool to the agent**: no need, because the agent already knows how to search documents — Drive only changes where some of those documents come from. - **Two panel actions** (section 5) — "Upload file" and "Create folder" — exist in the catalog but are **genuinely inactive today**, not just switched off: they need an additional Google permission your provider hasn't activated yet. This guide explains it honestly in section 5, it doesn't hide it.
