Connect Google Drive to ZenSearch
Search every document in your Google Drive — Docs, Sheets, Slides, and PDFs — with AI that understands the content, not just the filename.
What ZenSearch indexes from Google Drive
Google Workspace Conversion
Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides are automatically converted and parsed. Formatting, tables, and slide content are preserved for accurate search results.
All File Types
PDFs, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, images, and plain text files stored in Drive are extracted and indexed alongside native Google formats.
Shared Drives
Shared Drives (formerly Team Drives) are fully supported. Index content across personal drives, shared drives, and drives shared with you.
OAuth & Service Account
Authenticate with OAuth for individual users or Service Account for organization-wide access. Google Workspace admin consent enables bulk indexing.
Folder Filtering
Select specific folders or entire drives to index. Exclude folders containing drafts, personal files, or content that should not be searchable.
Permission-Aware Results
Drive sharing permissions are respected. Users only see search results for files they have access to in Google Drive.
Up and running in three steps
Authenticate your account and select the resources to index. ZenSearch handles OAuth, API keys, and enterprise SSO.
ZenSearch parses, chunks, and vectorizes your content. Incremental sync keeps everything up to date automatically.
Your team searches across all connected sources with AI-powered semantic search, chat, and agents.
Questions your team can finally answer
Once Google Drive is connected, your team can ask natural-language questions and get cited answers instantly.
