# Retrieve Information from a single Google Drive

To automatically retrieve content from Google Drive, create a new fetch task by following these steps. The connector runs each fetch task automatically, based on the schedule that is configured in the configuration file.

To create a new Fetch Task

1. Stop the connector.
2. Open the configuration file in a text editor.

3. In the `[FetchTasks]` section of the configuration file, specify the number of fetch tasks using the `Number` parameter. If you are configuring the first fetch task, type `Number=1`. If one or more fetch tasks have already been configured, increase the value of the `Number` parameter by one (1). Below the `Number` parameter, specify the names of the fetch tasks, starting from zero (0). For example:

       [FetchTasks]
       Number=1
       0=MyTask

4. Below the `[FetchTasks]` section, create a new TaskName section. The name of the section must match the name of the new fetch task. For example:

       [FetchTasks]
       Number=1
       0=MyTask

       [MyTask]

1. In the new section, ensure that you have set the parameters required to authenticate with Google Drive. The OAuth configuration tool (described in Configure OAuth Authentication) creates a file that contains these parameters, and you can include them in the connector's configuration file using the following syntax:

       [MyTask] < "oauth.cfg" [OAUTH]

   For more information about including parameters from another file, see Include an External Configuration File

2. In the new section, set the following configuration parameters:

   `UserName` | The user name to use to access Google Drive.
   `ProxyHost` | (Optional) The host name or IP address of the proxy server to use to access Google Drive.
   `ProxyPort` | (Optional) The port of the proxy server to use to access Google Drive.
   `SSLConfig` | The name of the section in the configuration file that contains the SSL settings to use to access Google Drive.
   `UserAgent` | The value to use for the `User-Agent` header in requests sent to the repository. Micro Focus recommends that you set the user-agent to a value that includes "gzip". This improves performance because Google Drive compresses its responses with GZIP compression. For more information, refer to the Google Drive API documentation.

   For Example:

       [MyTask]
       Username = test.oauth.test@gmail.com
       ProxyHost=10.0.0.1
       ProxyPort=8080
       SSLConfig=SSL
       UserAgent=autn:netlib/2.0 gzip

       [SSL]
       SSLMethod=NEGOTIATE

3. Save and close the configuration file. You can now start the connector.

   For more information about the configuration parameters that are available in Google Drive Connector, refer to the Google Drive Connector Reference.
