Frequently Asked Questions

How to download large files from Google Drive?

Go to Google Drive and right-click the file you want to download. Click download.

To download multiple files, select the files you need and right-click. Click download. This will package and download the files as a ZIP folder

Can I email files directly to Google Drive?

Not directly. Attach the files to your email message (as long as its size is 25 MB or smaller) and send it to the email address connected to your Google Drive. Open the email and click the “Add to Drive” icon on the attachment.

Is there a size limit for the MASV and Google Drive integration?

Google Drive is not optimized for large file transfers (over 25 GB) due to its file transfer speed limits. Transfers to Google Drive might take longer than to Google Cloud or other cloud services. The package size delivered from MASV to your Google Drive cannot exceed the available space in your cloud storage account. Individual files cannot exceed the file size limit of the cloud storage provider: Google Drive allows a maximum of 750 GB of transfers in a 24-hour period. If you regularly send files over 2 GB in size and packages over 25 GB total, we recommend investigating Google Cloud or other cloud services.

How do I transfer files to someone else's Google Drive?

The recipient needs to share their Google Drive folder with you and grant edit permission. This can be a security risk so we recommend using a MASV Portal instead. Upload the files to the recipient’s MASV Portal. If they integrated MASV with Google Drive, anything you upload will automatically appear in their Drive.

Can someone upload files to my Google Drive?

Yes. There are two ways. One, share your Google Drive folder with someone and grant them edit access to your folder. This can be a security risk so we recommend using option two instead: a MASV Portal. A MASV Portal is a secure upload window which can connect to Google Drive. Anything that gets uploaded to your Portal will automatically appear in your Drive.

Does the MASV and Google Drive integration work with ZIPs?

Zip files are not transferred – only a package’s files and directories.

Can I download files through the MASV app from Google Drive?

No. The MASV app does not support downloading from Google Drive.
