U-M Slack: Integrating Dropbox and Google Drive Storage Apps

Environment

U-M Slack, Google Drive, Dropbox

Issue

Can I add or share files stored in Dropbox or Google Drive from within U-M Slack?

Resolution

The Dropbox and Google Drive apps for Slack allow files stored and maintained in those services to be added and shared in U-M Slack. Workspace Admins can add the Dropbox and/or Google Drive apps to their U-M Slack workspace(s) as needed. These apps are available in the Slack Marketplace and will be auto-approved when requesting to add them.

Please refer to the respective links below for more information on the Dropbox and Google Drive Slack apps, along with instructions on adding and using them. 

Additional Information

The only exception to this policy is the Maize & Blue public workspace, where no apps can be requested or installed.
