Still Sharing Google Drive Files After Every Sale?
A new WooCommerce order should not mean opening Google Drive, finding the right file,
sharing it with the buyer and checking the permissions every time.
Every Sale Creates More Work
Each order means another file or folder to find, share and double-check manually in Google Drive.
Paid Files Can End Up Being Shared
Public links can be forwarded. Private sharing gives you more control, but managing every buyer by hand quickly becomes a chore.
Refunded Order, Access Still Open
A refund or cancellation in WooCommerce does not help if you still have to remember to remove that customer’s Drive access yourself.
Let WooCommerce Handle Google Drive Access for You
You keep selling with WooCommerce and storing your content in Google Drive.
Drive Downloads Pro connects the two and handles customer access based on the order.
When the Customer Buys:
- Grant private access to the buyer automatically
- Or deliver using an anyone-with-the-link setup
- Use your global rules or different settings for individual products
When the Order Changes:
- Refunded → private access can be removed
- Cancelled → private access can be revoked
- Failed, deleted or expired → apply the access rules you configured
The right customer gets the right files without you going back and forth between WooCommerce and Google Drive after every order.
Start Selling from Google Drive in 4 Steps
Connect Google Drive once, choose what each WooCommerce product delivers and let your orders handle the rest.
1 Connect Google Drive
Connect your Google Drive account to Drive Downloads Pro and complete the setup once.
2 Choose What Each Product Delivers
Open a WooCommerce product and select the Google Drive file or folder you want the customer to receive.
- Pick a folder or file directly from Google Drive with the Google Drive button
- Set the download name shown to customers
- Override Drive access rules per product when needed
3 Choose How Customers Get Access
In the plugin settings, you decide:
Who gets access:
Customer only (buyer email – private access)
Anyone with the link (public access)
Private access role:
View only
View + add comments
View + edit files
Additional options:
Restrict private access to Gmail addresses only
Show “Shared with me” content in the Drive picker
Block download/copy for viewers where supported
Sharing control:
Control whether editors can re-share content
Send Google notification emails for private access
Remove public links before private customer grants
4 Sell as Usual
When the order is completed, Drive Downloads Pro applies your access rules automatically and can remove private access later when the order status requires it.
Less Drive Admin After Every WooCommerce Order
Spend your time selling your digital products instead of sharing files, checking permissions and cleaning up old customer access.
Stop Sharing Every Order by Hand
Once your products are linked, completed orders can handle Drive access without you opening Google Drive for every customer.
Decide Exactly How Buyers Get Access
Use private buyer-only access when the content should stay with the customer, or public link delivery when that makes more sense for the product.
Keep Using WooCommerce Normally
No separate checkout or customer flow. Orders, downloads and customer accounts continue working through WooCommerce.
Fewer “I Can’t Access My Files” Messages
Give customers access according to the same order and product rules every time, reducing missed shares and permission mistakes.
More Orders Without More Drive Work
Whether you receive a few orders or hundreds, you do not need to repeat the same Google Drive sharing process for every buyer.
Your Files Stay in Google Drive
Sell courses, videos, ebooks, templates, resource packs and other digital products without moving the content to your WordPress server.
What Can You Sell from Google Drive with WooCommerce?
If the product already lives in Google Drive, you can keep it there and use WooCommerce to sell access to it.
Digital Downloads & Resource Packs
Sell ebooks, templates, design files, audio, videos, guides, ZIP files and complete resource packs stored in Drive.
Private Client Files & Folders
Give customers private access to folders, deliverables and project files without sending every invitation manually.
Courses & Membership Content
Deliver videos, worksheets, lessons and member resources stored in Google Drive through products sold with WooCommerce.
Why Not Just Add a Google Drive Link to WooCommerce?
Because a link can deliver a file, but it does not know who bought it,
whether the order was refunded or whether that customer should still have access.
With a Plain Public Link
- You do not really know who opens it
- The link can be forwarded, copied, and shared
- You must manually update or remove access when orders change
- There is no automatic connection between WooCommerce order status and Drive access
With Drive Downloads Pro
- Access is connected to WooCommerce order status, not just a URL
- Choose private buyer-only access or public anyone-with-link delivery
- Order changes can update Drive permissions automatically
- Private access can be revoked when configured order events happen
Drive Downloads Pro connects the sale with the access: WooCommerce knows what happened to the order, and your Google Drive permissions can follow those rules.
Test It on Your Store Before You Buy Pro
Connect your own Google Drive, select a file or folder and add it to a real WooCommerce product.
See how the workflow fits your store before upgrading to Pro.
With the Lite version you can:
- Test the core Google Drive integration in your own WooCommerce store
- Link Google Drive files or folders to WooCommerce downloadable products
- Automatically fill the WooCommerce download URL from Google Drive
Lite lets you test the Google Drive integration. Upgrade to Pro when you want customer-specific access, automatic permission handling and revocation based on WooCommerce orders.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to connect WooCommerce to Google Drive?
You need WordPress + WooCommerce, a Google Drive account, and a free Google Cloud project to create OAuth credentials and an API key. The setup is quick and explained step by step in the documentation.
How do customers receive their Google Drive files after buying?
Customers download from their WooCommerce account as usual. In the background, Google Drive controls access. If you enable private email-based access, customers may also receive a Google Drive sharing invitation.
Can I try the WooCommerce Google Drive integration for free?
Yes. Drive Downloads Lite is available for free. Lite lets you connect Google Drive and link files/folders to WooCommerce downloadable products. Note: Lite does not grant/revoke access per order and does not manage Drive permissions—those features are Pro-only.
What is the difference between Drive Downloads Lite and Pro?
Pro adds automatic access control per order (grant/revoke), private buyer-only access by email, permission levels (view/comment/edit), advanced sharing/security options, and activity logs/order notes.
Do customers need a Google account or Gmail?
It depends on how you configure access. For private email-based access, customers typically need a Google account for that email to view shared Drive content. If you enable Gmail-only access, then a Gmail address is required.
Can I use Shared Drives or “Shared with me” files?
Yes, you can work with Shared Drives and items shared with your account, as long as your Google account has the appropriate permissions and your Drive/Workspace settings allow sharing.
Can I sell private Google Drive files with WooCommerce?
You decide. You can use public links (anyone with the link) or private buyer-only access (recommended for Pro). Private access is ideal when you want only the paying customer to view the content.
Do my files stay in Google Drive?
No. Your files stay in Google Drive. The plugin only links your products to Drive files/folders and (in Pro) manages access permissions.
Can access be removed automatically after a refund or cancellation?
Renaming is usually fine. Moving items or changing sharing settings can affect access, depending on your configuration. If you reorganize Drive often, it’s best to test one product after changes.
Can I set different rules per product?
Yes. You can manage global defaults and override settings per product, so each product can have its own Drive item and access behavior.
What happens when the order is refunded or canceled?
In Pro, the plugin can automatically revoke access when an order is refunded, canceled, or otherwise set to a status you configure. Lite does not manage access per order.
Can customers share my Google Drive files with other people?
Pro can significantly reduce unauthorized access by using buyer-only permissions and restrictive sharing settings, but no solution can guarantee 100% prevention of piracy or reshares. The goal is controlled access, not absolute DRM.
Is it compatible with caching/security plugins?
In most cases yes. If you use aggressive caching or security rules, exclude WooCommerce account/download endpoints from caching and ensure your site can make outbound requests to Google APIs.
Can I sell large videos, courses or folders from Google Drive?
Yes. You can link WooCommerce products to Google Drive files or folders, making it suitable for videos, courses, templates, ebooks, resource packs, client files and other digital content already stored in Drive.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes—refund terms are listed on the website. If you have a setup issue, contact support first and we’ll help you get it working.
Stop Sharing Google Drive Files After Every Sale
Connect Google Drive, choose the files or folders behind your WooCommerce products and let each order handle the customer access you would otherwise manage by hand.
