How to get Google Drive working in Kubuntu 16.04 LTS?

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
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?
kubuntu kde google-drive

Thanks, but it seems to be too new for 16.04 LTS.

Sorry about that! Looks like that link refers to 17.04+.

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

You just need to typegdrive:/
in the Dolphin location bar.
