     Your default web browser opens to the Google Drive web site, so that you can authorize the connector to access Google Drive.

     After you authorize the connector, the OAuth tool obtains the access token from Google Drive and creates a file named `oauth.cfg`, in the connector's installation folder. This file contains the parameters required by the connector to authenticate with Google Drive. The default connector configuration automatically imports these parameters (for information about how to include configuration parameters from other files, see Include an External Configuration File).

     You can now configure fetch tasks. For information about how to do this, see Use the Connector.

   - If you are retrieving information from the users in a G Suite domain, or if you would prefer to run the OAuth configuration tool at a later time, clear the Run OAuth tool check box and click Finish. For information about how to configure OAuth authentication, see Configure OAuth Authentication.
