Installing the Jive for Google Drive Files and Docs Add-On

- In the Admin Console, make sure you select Enabled for the Add-Ons Registry by going to Add-ons > Cloud Settings.
Installation Steps
-
Log into Jive with a user who can access G Suite and has permission to install add-ons. This user needs the Manage System administrator permission.
