Google Drive provides a cloud-based storage solution for
Google Workspace files and other
user data. Managing data in Drive can be a time-consuming task.
You can save time and effort for your users by extending Google Drive with
Google Workspace Add-ons. When you build a Google Workspace Add-on, you can define custom
interfaces that are inserted directly into Google Drive, exactly where the
user needs them. These interfaces help automate Drive tasks, present
additional information to the user, or let the user interact with a third-party
system without having to switch to a new browser tab.
Google Workspace Add-ons can define the following kinds of extensions within Google Drive:
Contextual interfaces that appear when users select items in the Google Drive
interface.

Google Workspace Add-ons are built using
Apps Script, and their interfaces defined using the Apps Script
Card service. See
Building Google Workspace Add-ons

Drive-specific sections.
When configuring your Google Workspace Add-on to extend
Google Drive, you must
decide what interfaces to create for your add-on and what actions it can take.
