    Hi Everybody!

    There is a customer I interrupted the connection. Earlier Updraft was set up to save backups to my Google Drive account. Few months ago I handed over the admin rights to an other developer, but he didn’t change saving, so backups comes to my account once a day.
    Please let me know how I can disable their access to my account?

    Hi,

    Make sure you are logged into the correct Google account.

    Then access the following link:

    ?https://myaccount.google.com/security-checkup

    You should see a “Third-party access” section, click that.

    You should then see apps with access to your account, look for UpdraftPlus and use the “Remove access” button.

    Best Wishes,

    Ashley

    I’m afraid this is not the good solution, because other backups are saved to this account too. If I remove the access of Updraft, saving of other backups will be disabled too. I would like to deny only one backup.

    Sadly, Google don’t provide any other solution. Their authentication mechanisms mean that it’s all-or-nothing, which is why they’re only providing an all-or-nothing control.

    N.B. Google Drive’s T & C forbid use for commercial purposes – https://updraftplus.com/google-drive-have-you-read-those-terms-and-conditions/ . They want to push commercial users to use Google Cloud Storage instead. So, it’s unlikely they’ll ever provide you with per-site controls, because (for non-GSuite use) they intend it as a product for one person’s personal data.
