    Hi Idealynx,

    For each WordPress installation you have it should connect to a new Google Drive API Project.

    This is to avoid problems in the future such as UpdraftPlus randomly being unable to connect to Google Drive.

    It is unknown why this happens and maybe a glitch on Google Drives side.

    It is best to create the different API projects now and avoid future problems.

    Thanks,

    Ashley

    Google have unpublished limits on token requests. That is, they publish that limits exist, but not what the limits are. They do this because they wish to discourage mass use of Google Drive (they prefer non-consumers / people handling business data to look at Google Cloud instead). Experience/trial-and-error shows that you’re less likely to hit the limits by using multiple projects.

    Yeah, I tried setting up Google Drive and I just couldn’t get it to work consistently. However, when coupled with DropBox, UpdraftPlus appears to be rock solid. ??
