Four ways to move files to and from Google Drive
Whether you need to support manual file transfers, self-service uploads, email-based collection, or fully automated SFTP workflows, Couchdrop provides a secure gateway into your Google Drive environment.
Connect to Google Drive using SFTP
Create SFTP user accounts that map directly to Google Drive folders. Partners connect using standard SFTP/FTP protocols, and clients like FileZilla or WinSCP, to upload and download files. You control permissions down to the folder level, while they use the tools they already know.
Upload files into Google Drive via web portal
Generate secure, branded upload pages where external users can drag-and-drop files directly into Google Drive. No accounts or software needed—just send them a link. Perfect for collecting documents from clients, vendors, or anyone who needs to send you files occasionally.
Save email attachments to Google Drive
Create dedicated email addresses that automatically extract attachments and save them to Google Drive. Partners just email files like they always have—Couchdrop handles the rest. Set rules to route files based on sender, subject, or attachment type.
Automate Google Drive transfers
Set up scheduled or triggered file movements between Google Drive and any SFTP endpoint. Monitor Google Drive folders and automatically send new files to partners, or pull files from external servers into Google Drive. Build complex workflows with file processing, routing, and notifications—all without writing code.
Thousands of private and public sector organisations scale SFTP file transfers with Couchdrop
