I installed LibreOffice 26.2 hoping that Google Drive functionality would be working (over 25.8) per this commit.
However, I cannot create a connection in Writer’s Use Remote Files. Here’s what I did.
- Open LO 26.2.
- Click “Remote Files.”
- Click “Add Service.”
- Choose “Google Drive.”
- Enter requested details. Note that I attempted this with a managed (educational) Gmail account and a personal unmanaged Gmail account so I don’t think the management is the issue.
- I also attempted using both an “app password” and the main password for the account in both situations. Nothing changed.
- Google’s authorization page did show! Note the “already has access” is because I made multiple attempts to set up LO with Google Drive.
- The redirect to http://localhost:49153/LibreOffice/oauth2/GDRIVE/?iss=https://accounts.google.com&code=XXXX then failed
- I did, in fact, verify that Firefox has local network access in my Mac’s privacy settings. I also tried replacing localhost with 127.0.0.1. Both resulted in the same error. This behavior of unable to connect occurred on my hotspot so I tried my home internet–same error.
Are there any logs I can find/attach?
