# Connect Google Drive to AI coding agents with Unblocked URL: https://getunblocked.com/integrations/google-drive/ The Unblocked Google Drive integration gives AI coding agents cited context from selected Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, text files, and PDFs, then connects those documents to relevant code, pull requests, and tickets. --- ## Google Drive integration details - **Category:** Knowledge - **Indexed data:** Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, text files, PDFs, folders, shared drives - **Supported products:** Google Drive · Google Drive for Workspaces - **Works with:** Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Codex, VS Code — via one MCP server connection - **Content reviewed:** July 20, 2026 - **Documentation:** - **Website:** ## What the Google Drive integration adds Product requirements, architecture proposals, launch plans, and runbooks often live in Google Drive rather than the repository. Unblocked makes the Drive content you select discoverable in the same research path as code and issue history, with a link back to the source document. Instead of treating document search as a separate task, an agent can use a design doc to explain the intent behind an implementation, compare a pull request with its requirements, or find the operational procedure related to an incident. Teams that need organization-wide coverage can use Google Drive for Workspaces to connect current and future Workspace content while retaining document-permission awareness. This uses a separate Google administrator setup from the individual Google Drive connection. Through the Unblocked MCP integration, Google Drive context is available to Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Codex, VS Code, and other compatible AI coding tools. ### What you get - **Searchable Google Drive context** — Bring selected Google Docs, Sheets, Slides (including speaker notes), plain-text files, and PDFs into the same cited research workflow as source code, pull requests, and issue history. - **Files, folders, and shared drives** — Grant access at the file, folder, or shared-drive level to match how your team organizes its documentation. - **Google Drive for Workspaces** — Support an organization-wide content scope with document-permission awareness and optional access to personal Drive content when Data Shield is enabled. - **Managed access** — The connecting user adds files and any admin can remove them, so you keep control over what Unblocked can reference. - **Cross-source synthesis** — Drive documents are combined with your code, pull requests, Jira tickets, and Slack threads into a single knowledge graph. ## How to connect Google Drive to Unblocked Prerequisites: - An Unblocked account (free to start). - A Google account with access to the files, folders, and shared drives you want to index. - For Google Drive for Workspaces, a Google Super Admin or delegated custom admin must complete the organization-level setup. - An MCP-compatible coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) to use the context in your editor. ### Step 1: Connect Google Drive to Unblocked 1. In Unblocked, go to Settings → Data Sources → Connect another data source, and under Documentation select Google Drive. 2. Confirm you want to share your Drive files, then sign in to Google and authorize Unblocked. 3. Choose the files, folders, and shared drives you want Unblocked to reference. 4. Click Save Settings — Unblocked begins using these resources to answer questions. See the complete setup guide, screenshots, and troubleshooting: ### Step 2: Install the Unblocked MCP server On macOS, one command auto-detects and configures your supported agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Codex, VS Code): ```bash curl -fsSL https://getunblocked.com/install-mcp.sh | bash ``` The install script supports macOS only. On Windows or Linux, add the server manually using the configuration below, or follow the manual install guide: Claude Code — add the remote server, then run /mcp in Claude Code, select unblocked, and log in via OAuth: ```bash claude mcp add -s user --transport http unblocked https://getunblocked.com/api/mcpsse ``` Cursor — open View: Open MCP Settings → Add Custom MCP, add the server, then click Connect to authenticate via OAuth: ```json { "mcpServers": { "unblocked": { "url": "https://getunblocked.com/api/mcpsse" } } } ``` Any MCP-compatible client (Windsurf, Codex, VS Code, Claude Desktop, and others) can connect to the remote server with OAuth: `https://getunblocked.com/api/mcpsse` ## Connect Google Drive to Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI agents To give Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, or another MCP-compatible AI coding agent access to Google Drive context, connect Google Drive to Unblocked and add the single Unblocked MCP server to your agent. Unblocked acts as the MCP context layer for your Google Drive data, searching Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, text files, PDFs, folders, shared drives alongside your other connected sources and returning cited results through these tools: - **`context_research`** — Multi-source research across your Google Drive documents, plus your code, pull requests, and other connected sources. Returns a synthesized answer with citations back to the document it used. - **`context_get_urls`** — Fetches the full content behind a Google Drive document URL your agent encounters — plus GitHub, Jira, Linear, Confluence, Slack, and more. ## Questions to ask an AI agent about Google Drive Questions you (or your agent) can ask Unblocked about your Google Drive data: - "What does the design doc in Drive say about our caching strategy?" - "Where is the launch checklist for the mobile release?" - "What are the requirements captured in the product PRD?" - "Which document describes our data-retention policy?" ## Related integrations - [Confluence](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/confluence/) — Pages and blog posts from the Confluence spaces you select — including rendered macro content — indexed and cited in answers. - [Notion](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/notion/) — Pages from your Notion workspaces, indexed as cited sources so answers can draw on specs, wikis, and design docs. - [Microsoft SharePoint](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/microsoft-sharepoint/) — Documents and pages from the SharePoint sites you select, referenced in answers with links back to the source. - [Coda Enterprise](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/coda/) — Documents from your Coda Enterprise organization — select files or folders and Unblocked indexes them as cited sources in answers. ## Get started with Unblocked - Start a free trial: - Pricing: - Documentation: - All integrations:
