Google Drive Odoo Integration v.17
The tool to automatically synchronize Odoo attachments with Google Drive files in both ways
This is the tool to integrate Google Drive features with Odoo folders and files. The app automatically stores Odoo attachments and directories in Google Drive and provides instant access to them via web links.
Automatic folders' structure
Decide which Odoo document types should have their own folders trees and synchronize those to Google Drive
Automatic regular sync
Rely on auto-synchronization between Odoo and Google Drive based on scheduled jobs. No manual interaction is required
Bilateral sync
Odoo sends attachments to Google Drive and retrieves files from there. Binary content is kept in clouds, while Odoo provides direct access to synced items
Cloud synchronization history
Control Google Drive sync logs right in Odoo. Export and share those in case of any issues. Be notified of any client disconnections
File manager interface
Manage synced folders and attachments from a single Odoo view. Comfortably navigate by directories. Search and download files one by one or in batch. Upload and move attachments to folders
Attachment box
Organize files of any Odoo object in a set of subfolders. Instantly access folders and files in the attachment box and in Google Drive.
Automatic backups
The app allows you to automatically sync and manage your current database backups to Google Drive.
Tricky setup, but works perfectly now
Really solid module. We managed to get a very flexible folder structure (sorted by clients) and synced all our sales orders, invoices and tasks by projects to Google Drive.
Initial setup was a bit of a pain and kinda tricky to configure everything at first, but now it's running smoothly and works perfectly. The faotools team helped a lot. Def worth it if u need to keep your docs organized in Odoo and Google Drive.

Excellent !!!
Great App and great Service from faOtools.
Best module for integration with google drive
The module performs its function correctly and faOtools responds quickly to any problem and, in case of detecting any bug, quickly apply the changes. Its support is 10 stars.
How synchronization works
Automatic two-sided sync
-
Configure sync for one or multiple Google Drive instances
-
Integration is based on scheduled jobs and is fully automatized. The app regularly checks changes in systems and runs sync operations
-
Synchronization is bilateral. Updates in Odoo are reflected in Google Drive (direct sync); changes in Google Drive modify Odoo folders and attachments (backward sync)
-
Cloud connection with Google Drive might be reset. In this way, the app assumes getting back all items back to Odoo (reverse sync)
-
Odoo folders and attachments might be re-attached to a new cloud client from Google Drive. Hence, items will be first taken back to Odoo (reverse sync) and then will be put into the new cloud storage (direct sync)
Queue-based synchronization
-
Once in 15 minutes, the app examines updates in Odoo and Google Drive to prepare a synchronization queue
-
Folders' checks follow the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) principle. So, directories that have not been examined for the longest will be processed first
-
Once in 15 minutes, the sync queue is run by the special scheduled job. Firstly, the most important (blocking) tasks would be done
-
Control planned jobs and their fulfillment in the special Odoo logs interface (Cloud Storage > Configuration > Sync Logs). Subscribe for particular cloud clients notifications
-
If the app faces sync failures, it will re-try operations afterward. Sync queue processing would not be stopped if there are items not blocked by such failures
Odoo attachments for Google Drive: direct sync
-
Direct sync prepares the folders' hierarchy and uploads Odoo attachments for Google Drive
-
Direct sync checks whether attachments are added or deleted for synced directories. If so, they will be created in Google Drive or removed from there. In particular, it means that any file added to a folder-related Odoo object (e.g. Quotation), would be automatically moved to a linked cloud client
-
Direct sync makes all synced Odoo attachments change their type to a link (URL), while binary content is removed with one of the next Odoo cleaners. So, no actual files would be stored on your Odoo server
-
Direct sync checks whether a new folder is added. Disregarding whether it is done manually or automatically, the app would generate a peer directory in Google Drive
-
Direct sync checks whether there are any updates in folders. If so, such changes are reflected in Google Drive
Google Drive files and folders for Odoo: backward sync
-
Backward sync checks whether any files or subfolders are added to Google Drive folders. If so, the app would create URL attachments/subdirectories inside linked Odoo directories (and hence Odoo objects if any)
-
Backward sync checks whether there are any updates in folders or attachments. Such updates would be then reflected in Odoo
-
Backward sync checks whether any files are deleted/moved in a Google Drive document folder. If so, a linked Odoo attachment would be also unlinked or moved
-
If you deleted a Google Drive folder related to a folder rule / Odoo object, their child files would be deleted as well. Thus, Odoo would remove related attachments. The folders, however, will be recovered with a direct sync
-
In case of conflicts, direct sync changes are in general considered more important than backward updates.
Resetting or changing Google Drive: reverse sync
-
In case you decided to reset the connection with Google Drive, files would be moved back to Odoo
-
In case you decided to change the cloud client of a folder rule or a folder, files would be first taken back to Odoo, and then direct sync for a new client would be done
-
Reverse sync operations are prioritized to direct and backward sync operations
-
Not all items can be correctly reversed to Odoo due to cloud client peculiarities. For example, there are documents that may exist only in cloud storage environments (e.g. Google Sheets). The app would try to convert such documents, but in some cases, it will require manual interactions.

相关常见问题 Google Drive Odoo Integration Odoo v.17
生成的 Google Drive 文件夹会在 Odoo 用户之间自动共享吗?
应用本身不管理 Google Drive 一侧的访问权限,需在那边手动设置。Odoo 会在 Google Drive 创建目标文件夹,默认不共享,您可以更改任一文件夹的权限。例如为 'Odoo' 目录,或为特定的 'Odoo > Sale Orders' 或 'Odoo > Sale Orders > SO-001' 授予完整权限。
应用按单一用户端点原则工作。因此所有同步操作都在同一 Google Drive 用户下进行(取决于您配置的 Google API 应用)。
我在 Google Drive 中删除了文件,但它仍在 Odoo 中
要彻底删除文件,还需要清空 Google Drive 中的回收站。
另外请注意,文件可能仍在 Odoo 中,因为反向同步尚未处理该附件。这是定时进程,需要一些时间。
Google 会根据 API 请求向我收费吗?
本模块仅使用免费 API,因此 Google 不会向您收费。
同步字段存储在哪里?会复制到 Odoo 和云端吗?
本应用假定附件的二进制内容保存在 Cloud Client 中,而不是 Odoo 服务器上。因此,Odoo 中的此类附件变为 URL 类型,您可随时从附件框或 Cloud Client 访问它们。
设置完成后无需手动操作,同步完全自动。只需决定要同步哪些 Odoo 单据类型,并为每一种设置关联模型(客户、销售或采购订单、任务、项目等)。
同一单据类型可以有多个文件夹吗?例如内部项目和客户项目?
可以。请为每一种准备规则,然后应用筛选:例如按项目类型。
尽量让筛选互斥,以便单据能被明确归类。例如“是客户但不是供应商”、“是供应商但不是客户”。否则某个单据文件夹会在模型之间跳动。
可以将同步做成实时的吗?
不可以。我们有充分理由避免实时同步:
性能问题。若同步是实时的,每次上传文件都会出现加载屏幕。
冲突问题。若 2 位用户同时更改一项,可能出现无法解决的情况。定期作业可以事后修复;实时同步则必须存成队列,对用户更加费解。
功能问题。尤其是重命名和调整结构。反向同步严格依赖目录逻辑,每次同步都会检查 100% 的项目。若每次更新都做,将是每秒数千次请求。若不做:更改会丢失。
我可以更改云中默认文件夹的名称吗?
可为任何单据类型给模型目录(销售订单、商机、供应商等)指定自己的名称。
对象文件夹(SO-001、John Smith 等)依赖 Odoo 为该单据类型构造显示名称的方法。不过可通过定义名称表达式来更改。使用的正是 Odoo 电子邮件模板的语法。
我可以更改同步作业的频率吗?
不可以。从版本 15 起不应再改计划作业。它们已优化为每 15 分钟运行,以保证最稳定、最快的连接。
请确保 Odoo 服务器超时至少为 15 分钟(900 秒)。
若需暂时停止同步,请在相应的 cloud client 表单上进行。
我可以将附件同步到几个云客户端吗
可以,从版本 15 起可设置多个连接。这样一部分文件夹同步到一个 cloud client,另一部分同步到另一个。
请注意,同一文件夹无法同时同步到多个 cloud storages。
我们在云中使用专用编辑器(例如 OnlyOffice、Office 365 等)。文件会在该编辑器中打开吗?
可以,取决于您的 cloud client 配置。
我是否只需要Cloud Storage Solution应用?
从版本 15 起,应用可单独用来把附件按文件夹整理,并提供文件管理器界面。
不过,若要与某个云客户端建立连接,则需要 至少安装一个可选的客户端相关应用。
更改文件夹规则时会发生什么?
文件夹规则一变,文件夹列表也会变。不再符合规则条件的文件夹会被移除。若文件已同步,反向同步会将其退回 Odoo 并从 Cloud Client 删除。
若文档对象不符合文件夹规则的条件,则不会创建其文件夹。之后若符合条件,将生成相关文件夹。
您的工具的更新政策是什么?
根据当前 Odoo Apps Store 政策:
- 为 12.0 及更早版本购买的每个模块,均可使用直至 12.0 的所有版本。
- 从 13.0 起,每个模块版本需单独购买。
- 无论版本如何,购买工具即获得该主版本内的 全部更新和缺陷修复权利。
请注意,faOtools 团队不控制这些政策。如有疑问,请直接联系 Odoo Apps Store 代表。
如何在 Odoo.sh 上安装您的应用?
最直接的做法是使用 Odoo 商店的内置流程:
1. 打开模块页面并点击 Deploy on odoo.sh 按钮
2. 之后会跳转到 GitHub 页面。登录帐户,然后点击 'Create a new repo' 或使用现有仓库。请确保仓库为私有。不得以 OPL-1 许可公开发布应用。如有需要,为 Odoo.sh 项目新建 repo
3. 然后转到 odoo.sh 并点击 Deploy 按钮。在弹出窗口中提交决定并点击 'Continue.' 这将触发安装过程。
这些步骤会将应用安装到项目的生产分支。若要部署到其他分支或更新模块,请执行以下操作:
1. 从 Odoo 商店上传应用的源代码
2. 将模块提交到所需的 GitHub 仓库。确保没有任何应用文件夹/文件被忽略(即未列入 repo 的 .gitignore)。仓库由 odoo.sh 自动创建,默认可能包含关键项(例如 /lib)。应上传模块的全部目录、子目录和文件,不得遗漏
3. 部署 odoo.sh 项目的目标分支,或在设置如此假定时 等待其自动构建。
应如何在自己的服务器上安装您的应用?
2. 重新启动 Odoo 服务器;
3. 打开开发者模式(技术设置);
4. 更新应用列表(应用菜单);
5. 找到应用并点击“Activate”/“Install”;
6. 如应用页面有指南,请按指南操作。
我注意到您的应用有额外附加模块。可以之后再购买吗?
可以。同时 Odoo 会自动把所有依赖加入购物车,因此应排除已购买的工具以免重复付款。
我在 Odoo.sh 上部署了您的应用,测试中出现警告/错误
红/橙色警告不影响应用功能。遗憾的是,标准自动测试有时假定与本应用目标冲突的行为,因此我们的模块会未通过。例如我们改了价格计算,而标准 Odoo 模块测试把最终价格与标准算法比较。
请先检查已部署数据库的功能。是否都正常?
若仍认为该警告影响真实功能,请联系我们并转发完整安装日志以及已部署模块的完整清单(含核心与第三方)。
我可以直接向贵公司购买应用吗?
不,我们只通过 官方 Odoo 应用商店.
希望获得折扣
很遗憾,我们没有技术手段 提供单独报价。
我可以在 Odoo Online (SaaS) 数据库上安装该应用吗?
不能,第三方应用无法在 Odoo Online 上使用。遗憾的是 Odoo SaaS 会阻止这种可能。
您的工具依赖其他应用。我需要购买那些应用吗?
是的,工具需要依赖中列出的全部模块才能正常工作。应用页上的价格已包含所有必要依赖。
该模块的美元价格是多少?为什么变了?
我们的模块价格以欧元标价。Odoo 商店按内部汇率换成其他货币。因此美元价格可能随汇率更新而变化。
