Google Drive Integration

Connect your Google Drive account to export flowcharts, presentations, and notes directly to Drive. Keep a history of all exports and disconnect at any time.

Connecting Google Drive

Go to Settings → Integrations and click Connect Google Drive. You'll be redirected to Google's OAuth consent screen to grant OpenCharts permission to create files in your Drive.

OpenCharts only requests permission to create and manage files it creates
We never read or modify your existing Drive files
You can revoke access at any time

Exporting to Drive

Once connected, a Google Drive option appears in the export modal for flowcharts, presentations, and notes. Select the format (PDF, PPTX, PNG, etc.) and click Export to Drive.

The file is uploaded to a dedicated OpenCharts folder in your Drive root. The folder is created automatically on first export.

Export History

Every export to Drive is tracked. View your export history in the export modal or in Settings → Integrations → Google Drive. Each entry shows the project name, export format, date, and a direct link to the file in Drive.

Disconnecting

Go to Settings → Integrations and click Disconnect. This revokes the OAuth token. Files already exported to Drive are not deleted — they remain in your Google Drive.

You can also revoke access from your Google Account at myaccount.google.com → Security → Third-party apps.
