May 14, 2024A: Hi, good question! I'd slit the answer in two parts:
1) when you create a library in MediaPlace you can specify its location. So it could be a Google Drive folder. When you import files into MediaPlace they are then stored in that Drive folder. Please note that if you want to use cloud storage systems, the online-only features have to be turned off
2) we recently added the Folders Watcher feature that allows you to monitor specific folders so that anytime a files is added, it's automatically imported into MediaPlace inside a specific folder

So if a file is added to the google drive folder on the cloud, it will automaticly import it to MP?? Woah..
Yes, correct!

Is there a manual for getting images from a specific Google Drive folder into MP?
I don't really get what steps I have to take.
It's very very simple. Click on the "Folder Watch" button on top and then click on "Add Folder" and select the folder you want to monitor. That's it. You can also change some settings on the right side of the popup to import only specific file type, select a destination folder in MP, etc.
