Anyone that’s ever used Google Drive knows that sharing documents within an organization can be a total nightmare, so Google introduced Google Team Drives to alleviate that problem.
Coda doesn’t currently support Team Drives, but it should! Migrating is laid out in this Google Developers doc and would be welcome even if it wasn’t totally feature complete.
For example, if Coda would allow us to create and store Coda docs in Team Drive, but then would disable the Coda sharing dialogue for these docs, THAT WOULD BE OK! We can still organize files and sharing within Team Drives so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel.
I definitely agree. Team Drives support would be appreciated. This will become more and more important for me at least when our use of coda increases but we still want to have control of who “owns” the coda doc, even after someone leaves the company.
Yeah, we’re using Coda heavily and the biggest barrier to full-out adoption is the lack of support of Team Drives specifically for the reason you’ve mentioned. Google Drive file management, and Coda file management as it stands, is not designed well for teams. Hopefully they can prioritize this for enterprise adoption!
This feature requests needs your help. Please watch this https://www.crowdcast.io/e/codaworkspaces - webinar 10/25/19 @ 53:30 to 55:50 and then send a message via Coda’s Intercom mentioning it is for @jaime
No updates on this yet, but as we grow our team and packs are revisited for improvements, this will be on the list of things to check out to see if we can make it happen.
The lack of team drive support really makes asset management difficult in coda. I want to keep the latest file in drive but have it display in coda from the pack.
Whelp i thought Coda was going to be a solution for all the various docs, spreadsheets, ppts… but if you don’t support team drives this is dead in the water.
