Issue
I am trying to share a file in Google Drive, but Google has indicated the file has been flagged as inappropriate. What do I do?
Resolution
If a document you own is flagged as inappropriate by Google, you will need to request a review. To do so:
- Click the "Share" button on the top right of the screen when looking at the document
- Click "Request Review"
This will prompt Google to manually check the document and confirm it is okay to share. Unfortunately, ITS is unable to reverse the state of the document; however, if it has been over 48 hours since you've requested a review and you still cannot share the document, please contact ITS and a ticket to Google can be opened on your behalf.
