Disconnecting Google Drive and what happens to your data

Requirements: Admin role.

  1. Open Google Drive’s Details, go to the Status tab and click Disconnect.
  2. Confirm in the warning — this action can’t be undone.

Result: syncing stops immediately. Documents that had already been synced to your knowledge base aren’t automatically deleted — they stay there just like a document you’d uploaded by hand; delete them manually from Knowledge base (Manual 21) if you no longer want them.

Note — Your files remain yours

Your files and folders always live in your own Google Drive account — disconnecting only removes your provider’s service account access; it doesn’t delete or modify anything in your Drive. If you want to revoke access completely, you can also stop sharing your files with the service account’s email from Google Drive itself.
