Embedded Files
Google Drive is a file storage and synchronisation application. It allows you to create or upload documents, share them with other users and synchronise them with your computer, so that they are available when you are offline. Google Drive lets you store and access your files anywhere -- on the web, on your hard drive, or on the go.
To access Google Drive from any other Google Workspace screen:
Click on the App Launcher button near the top-right corner of the screen
Choose Drive
The following links are available on the left-hand side of the screen:
Click on Priority to show documents that should be most relevant to you at any time, based on how you open documents during the day
Click on My Drive to show all of the files and folders you have uploaded into Google Drive, and any Docs, Sheets, Slides or other Google Workspace documents and folders you have created
Click on Shared Drives to view any shared drives (formerly Team Drives) that have been created and shared with you
Click on Shared with me to show any documents, files and folders that have been shared with you
Click on Recent to show all files that you have opened, with the most recently edited documents at the top of the list
Click on Starred to show any documents or files that have been starred
Click on Bin to show deleted documents and files.
In My Drive, the Quick Access pane uses machine learning to intelligently predict the files you need in Drive, and places these at the top of your Drive list for easy access. Quick Access uses information such as who files are frequently shared with, when specific meetings occur and what files are used at certain times of the day to suggest the files you will need each time you access Drive.
By default, documents show in Grid View, which displays a thumbnail of each document. To show a list, click on the List View button along the top of the screen:
