How to Set Up and Use the Google Drive Integration with Addo Sign

Learn how to set up the Google Drive integration in Addo Sign and automatically store signed documents. This guide explains how the integration works and how to apply it in your templates.

How it works

Addo Sign creates an “Addo Sign” folder in your Google Drive where signed documents are saved.

This helps:

  • keep your email inbox clear

  • simplify document management

Important Notes

  • The folder is created only after the first signed document is sent to Google Drive — not during setup

  • The integration applies only to your individual user account, not company-wide

How to set up the integration

  1. Go to Settings (⚙️) in Addo Sign.
    ​

  2. Select Integrations.
    ​

  3. Click on Google Drive:

    A pop-up window will appear prompting you to log in to your Google account.

  4. Click Login to Google Drive. You will be redirected to Google to sign in:

  5. Select your Google account, check the permission box on the next screen, and click 'Continue' to complete the setup.

  6. After logging in, you will be returned to Addo Sign:

Managing Your Google Drive Integration

After setup, you can rename the integration to distinguish between multiple Google accounts:​

  1. Go to Settings (⚙️).

  2. Select Integrations.

  3. Click the Google Drive integration you want to edit:
    ​

Update integration settings

  • Edit the integration name (optional)

  • Edit the folder name (required)

You can also terminate the integration from the same screen if needed.

Final Step

When you send your first signed document to Google Drive, the Addo Sign folder will be created automatically, and your files will be stored there.

Apply Google Drive to templates

⚠️You must have administrator rights to apply Google Drive to templates.

Once the integration is activated, you can use Google Drive in your templates:

  1. Go to Templates in the left-hand menu.

  2. Select the template(s) that should use Google Drive.

  3. Scroll to Sender distribution methods.

  4. Select Google Drive:

  5. Scroll to the bottom and click Save to confirm.

Set Google Drive as default


You can choose to use Google Drive as the default distribution method for new templates:

  1. Go to Settings (⚙️) → Integrations.

  2. Find the integration and click Default.

Once enabled:

  • New templates will automatically use Google Drive

⚠️ Existing templates must be updated manually to use Google Drive.
