# 09 — Drive sidebar pane

  `GDrivePane.tsx` picks files / folders from the connected Google Drive account and uploads project files back the other way. Drive auth is shared with the dashboard's [Cloud manager](../cloud/README.md).

  ## What it does

  - Picker uses the standard Google Picker API embedded inside an iframe modal — no extra OAuth round-trip if the user already linked Drive in the dashboard.
- Upload writes go through `/exocore/api/editor/gdrive/upload` (multipart) and inherit the user's per-folder ACL.
- Drive sessions are revoked from `Dashboard → Account → Connections`.
