How to add Google Drive to Claude
Google Drive is built into Claude, so there is no address to paste. Open Customize > Connectors (Settings > Connectors in some versions), find Google Drive, press Connect and sign in with Google. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner turns it on for the organisation first.
On your phone: connectors belong to your Claude account. Add it once on claude.ai or in the desktop app, and it is in the Claude app for iPhone and Android too: in a chat, press +, then Connectors, and switch it on.
How to add it to ChatGPT
ChatGPT has its own Google Drive connector: Settings > Apps (Connectors in some versions), Google Drive, Connect.
