I have installed KUbuntu 16.04 LTS with all updates.



I opened their dash menu and tried to search for Google. This leads me to icon named




Online Accounts
Configure your internet accounts such as Google, Live, Owncloud

Online Accounts




- it has executable kcmshell5 kcm_kaccounts.



I clicked on it, Online Accounts --- KDE Control Module window opened and I added my Google account here, it asked my credentials and then I checked all checkboxes (including GoogleDrive).



But I can't find any mention of Google Drive in the KDE/Plasma interface. How can I access it from Nemo or somewhat?

    Just tested it in Kubuntu 18.04 LTS - it works great in Dolphin!

  • You just need to type gdrive:/ in the Dolphin location bar.
