What is the Google Drive MCP Server?
Connect your Google Drive to your AI agent and transform how you interact with your cloud storage. Use natural language to find documents, manage sharing permissions, organize folders, and audit your file history across your entire drive.
What you can do
- Deep Search — Find files instantly using natural language queries (e.g., 'Find all PDFs from last week')
- File & Folder Management — Create, update, copy, and delete files or folders directly through the chat
- Sharing & Permissions — Audit who has access to your sensitive documents and add or remove permissions securely
- Content Conversion — Export Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides to formats like PDF or CSV with simple commands
- Version Control — List file revisions to track changes and see the evolution of your documents over time
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Google OAuth Client ID and Secret
- Complete the secure Google authorization flow
- Start managing your files from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Stop digging through nested folders. Your AI agent acts as your personal file librarian, keeping your cloud storage clean and accessible.

Frequently asked questions
Can I search for files by their content, not just their name?
Yes! The list_files tool uses Google Drive's powerful search engine. You can use queries like 'fullText contains "marketing plan"' to find files based on the text inside them.
How do I share a file with someone using the AI agent?
Use the create_permission tool. You just need to provide the File ID, the person's email address, and the role you want to grant (e.g., 'reader', 'commenter', or 'writer').
Can I export a Google Sheet to a PDF through the chat?
Yes. The export_file tool allows you to specify a Google Doc/Sheet/Slide ID and a target MIME type like application/pdf. The agent will initiate the export for you.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
