Hello I have a form that connects to a collection where doctors fill in a patients consult. Since they are geneticists, they also have to upload a drawing of the genealogy.
What I want to achieve is for the form to upload the image to google drive (or any other similar app) so as to avoid using the hosting storage.
Then when pulling the record, it would dynamically bring the image from the google drive location.
Any thoughts?
Hi Demian. There is no automated way of connecting google drive to your wix site. You would have to write code that connects to google drive’s REST API through wix-fetch functions.
here are some reading materials on connecting 3rd party services:

and information on how to use wix-fetch:

and finally some examples on connecting other google services to a wix site:

thanks, google drive has an app that is installed from Wix. So that connection is done. My question is how do I manage to upload photos to google drive from wix.
