If you use Google Drive to manage your files, using SpeakWrite just got a lot easier!
You can now link your SpeakWrite and Google Drive accounts, allowing you to have your completed SpeakWrite work delivered directly back into ‘My Drive’ on Google Drive.
How does it work?
- When you’re logged into your SpeakWrite Member page, visit the “Preferences” section on the left hand menu, navigate to “Integrations” and click “Link Google Drive Account”
- Then, sign into your Google Drive using your Google login credentials
- When you are ready to upload your next file for transcription, you will notice that you have the option of selecting Google Drive for your completed document delivery
Unfortunately, due to restrictions with Google Drive, you are unable to select a specific folder within your Google Drive. All files will be delivered to “My Drive”
- Your transcribed document will be delivered directly to your My Drive folder once completed, with the custom filename you designated upon upload. Additionally you will receive a completed job notification to your email notifying you that your document is complete.
- If you do not select Google Drive for your job delivery, then your job will just be returned by email.
Can I use Google Drive on the SpeakWrite App?
Once you have linked your SpeakWrite and Google Drive accounts on the Member page, you can select Google Drive delivery when uploading dictations through the app as well.
After you have created your dictation in the app, just select Google Drive delivery.
Why is this helpful?
Linking your Google Drive account to your SpeakWrite account allows you to save time by not having to open the email attachment, location the destination you want to store it, and save it there. Now, all of your files will automatically route to the final destination without any additional steps required on your part.
What if I want to remove Google Drive from my SpeakWrite account?
If you decide you no longer want to link your SpeakWrite and Google Driveaccount, it’s simple to undo the integration. Just go to the “Preferences” section of your Member page, select “Integrations”, and click “Disconnect Google Drive Account”.
This will fully disconnect your OneDrive and SpeakWrite accounts until you choose to reconnect them at any time in the future.
