This article explains how to connect ProBackup to your Google Drive and choose which apps to sync. Google Drive sync is available on the Pro and Premium plans.
Connecting during onboarding
After you click Start Backup for your first app, ProBackup shows the step Optional: Store your backups in Google Drive.
Click Connect Google Drive.
Sign in to your Google account and allow ProBackup to access your Google Drive. Tick all the boxes on Google's consent screen, otherwise the connection fails.
This step is optional. Click Skip for now (or Skip to dashboard) to connect later. Your backup runs either way.
Connecting after onboarding
If you skipped Google Drive sync during onboarding, you can enable it at any time.
Click Connect.
Sign in to your Google account and allow ProBackup to access your Google Drive (tick all the boxes).
ProBackup creates a folder per app in the root of your Google Drive, named ProBackup for [app] [your email]. Click Go to Folder next to an app to open it.
Choosing which apps and data to sync
When you connect, records sync is switched on for all your apps. For each app you can then configure:
Sync records to Google Sheets – your records are synced to Google Sheets after each daily backup cycle.
Sync files to Google Drive – your files and attachments are synced to the app's folder. Switch on Sync records to Google Sheets first, then confirm with Enable.
Note: File syncing is disabled by default because it can consume significant Google Drive storage. Make sure you have sufficient space available before enabling it.
Note: For Notion, only databases are synced to Google Sheets; Notion pages are not. Google Workspace backups can't be synced to Google Drive.
