Hello Google Workspace Developers team,
I am developing DMC Gestor, a commercial SaaS application for sales, inventory, finance, and business management.
We would like to implement an optional automated backup system where each business owner connects their own Google Drive account using OAuth and authorizes DMC Gestor to store encrypted backup files in their own Google Drive storage.
Supabase would remain our primary operational database. Google Drive would only store private backup files, using the customer’s own storage capacity.
We understand that the Google Drive API Terms of Service, under “Customer implementation”, require prior express written consent from Google for backing up application content to Drive. We also understand that the Google Workspace API policies restrict this use.
Before implementing this feature, we would like to ask:
-
Is it possible to obtain Google’s prior written authorization for this specific use case?
-
Which official Google team handles these requests?
-
Is there an official application form or contact channel?
-
Would the drive.file OAuth scope be appropriate if authorization is granted?
We are not requesting approval through this community post. We are looking for the official process and the appropriate Google team authorized to review this use case.
No backup integration has been implemented or activated.
Thank you for your guidance.
