Docs, mail and calendar

Import a Google Doc as a doc or an interview, with the picker of Google.

You can import a Google Doc into Troopy as a doc or an interview. You pick the doc in the picker of Google, and Troopy copies it. Nothing stays connected.

Before you begin

  • People who have Docs import into Docs. People who have Interviews import into Interviews.
  • A Google account that can open the doc.

Import a Google Doc

  1. Open Docs or Interviews, and select Import.
  2. Pick Google Docs, then select Choose from Google Drive.
  3. Sign in with Google if Google asks, and allow the access.
  4. Pick the docs in the picker of Google, and confirm.

The doc imports with its text and its images. A doc imports one time.

What Troopy keeps

  • The picker gives Troopy access to the files that you pick only.
  • Troopy uses that access one time, for the import, and never keeps it.
  • The doc in Troopy is a copy. A change in Google Docs after the import does not reach it.
