Google Drive for Confluence Macro no longer found after installing Google Calendar Macro

[Andrea Jacobson]

'Google Drive' Macro no longer appears as an option to use.

This option was noticed to be missing when a team member installed the 'Google Calendar' Macro. Existing 'Google Drive' macros in Confluence pages remain and the 'Google Drive' Macro appears in "Manage Apps". I get the error "seeing double" when I try to reinstall. Afraid to uninstall in case of breaking existing, working pages that use this Macro.

When noticed Google Drive macro missing:

Installed app Google Calendar for Confluence (com.madein49.google-calendar-for-confluence version 1.0.15-AC) - Feb 2 2022 10:19:26 AM

Anyone know a solution?

Hi @Andrea Jacobson 

The App is deprecated going forward.

Use smart links feature in Confluence editor for adding docs

Here's the link for reference

Let me know if you have any queries

Thanks,

Thank you! Very helpful! I am now able to embed Google Docs again.

Do you know how we can select which Google login we want it to use? It gives an error when I try to change it to my current login: drive.google.com refused to connect.

Thank you! Will use this going forward.

It seems to be a touch tricky to use the correct Google Drive login you want it to use.
