Project File Connectors

Hubzero allows for files to be shared either on a repository owned by the Hub or connect to other file management platforms. Project File Connectors allow for these third party file management systems to enable files uploaded on the Hub yet stored in their system. Follow these instructions to set-up and provide Project File Connectors to your users:

1. Navigate to the third party file management system of your choosing, such as Google Drive or Dropbox
2. Set-up either a new project or application and fill in information about the Hub in order to obtain an API key and API secret upon saving
3. Make sure you set the callback address to your Hub and indicate the appropriate file system
   1. Example: When setting up a Google Drive API connector to redirect to YourHub, the following callback should be used - https://yourhub.org/callback/googledriveAuthorize (?)
4. Once the API key and API secret have been created successfully, navigate back to the /administrator interface and login
5. Hover over Extensions and select from the dropdown Plug-in Manager
6. Search or locate the appropriate plugin connected to the file system
   1. Example: If the file system chosen is Google Drive, one would select the Filesystem - Google Drive plugin
7. Click on the title of the plugin and change the status to Enabled
8. Insert the API Key in the Client ID and the API Secret in the Client Secret
