This guide walks you through how to connect a Google Drive account to All Cloud Hub.

Once connected, files and folders from your Google Drive will start appearing inside FilesVerse, where you can view, search, organize, transfer, and sync them alongside other connected cloud accounts.

Before You Start

To connect Google Drive, make sure:

• You have a Google account with access to Google Drive
• You are signed in to All Cloud Hub
• You have not exceeded your plan’s account limit
  • Free plan allows up to three connected cloud accounts
  • Power User plan allows unlimited connected accounts

Step 1: Open the Connect Account Screen

From the All Cloud Hub dashboard, go to the Cloud Accounts section.

Click Connect Account.

This opens the screen where you can choose which cloud storage service to connect.

Step 2: Add an Account Alias

Before connecting Google Drive, you are required to add an Account Alias.

The Account Alias is a nickname that helps you identify this account inside All Cloud Hub. This is especially useful if you connect multiple Google Drive accounts.

For example, you might use:

• Personal Google Drive
• Client Drive
• Work Google Drive

After entering an alias, select Google Drive as the cloud platform.

The Connect Account button becomes active once both fields are filled.

Tip

Choose a clear and descriptive alias. This name will appear wherever this account is referenced inside FilesVerse.

Step 3: Sign In to Google

Click Connect Account.

You are redirected to the Google sign-in screen. From there, sign in using the Google account you want to connect.

If you are already signed in to multiple Google accounts, Google will ask you to choose which account to use.

Step 4: Grant Permissions

Google will ask you to grant permissions so All Cloud Hub can work with your files.

These permissions are required so you can:

• View files and folders
• Rename and organize files
• Copy or move files
• Transfer files between cloud storage accounts
• Sync folders across clouds

All actions are performed only when you initiate them inside All Cloud Hub.

---

Note

All Cloud Hub does not access your files in the background or make changes without your action.

---

Step 5: Return to FilesVerse

After you approve the permissions, you are redirected back to FilesVerse.

There is no success message. Instead, your Google Drive account is connected automatically, and its files and folders begin appearing in the dashboard.

Your connected Google Drive will now be listed under Cloud Accounts, identified by:

• The Google Drive icon
• The Account Alias you provided

What Happens Next

Once connected, you can immediately:

• View Google Drive files alongside files from other cloud accounts
• Search Google Drive files using FilesVerse search
• Rename and organize files directly from the dashboard
• Transfer files between Google Drive and other connected clouds

All files remain stored in your Google Drive account.

If the Connection Fails

If the browser is closed during sign-in, or if permission is denied, the connection is not established.

In this case:

• No account is added
• You can repeat the connection process from Connect Account

An error message is shown if the connection fails.

In Summary

Connecting Google Drive to All Cloud Hub requires adding an account alias, selecting Google Drive, and approving access through Google.

Once connected, your Google Drive files appear in FilesVerse automatically, ready to be managed alongside your other cloud storage accounts.

How to Connect OneDrive to All Cloud Hub.

This page explains what you need to use All Cloud Hub and which cloud storage services are currently supported.

If you are unsure whether your setup will work, this section should help clarify things.

Accessing All Cloud Hub

All Cloud Hub is currently available as a web application.

You can access it from any modern web browser. There are no specific browser restrictions, and no local software installation is required.

A mobile app is planned for the future.

Note

Because All Cloud Hub runs in the browser, you can access your files from any device without setting up local sync software.

Supported Cloud Storage Services

All Cloud Hub currently supports the following cloud storage providers:

• Google Drive
• Dropbox
• OneDrive

You can connect personal as well as business or workspace accounts for these services.

Additional cloud storage providers are planned, including pCloud, MEGA, and Proton Drive.

Connecting Cloud Accounts

To use All Cloud Hub, you must connect at least one cloud storage account.

Cloud accounts are connected securely using OAuth. This allows you to sign in directly with the cloud provider and grant permission without sharing your password.

Write access is required so that All Cloud Hub can rename, organize, transfer, and sync files on your behalf.

Connected accounts are listed under Cloud Accounts, and new accounts can be added using Connect Account.

Account Types Supported

All Cloud Hub supports:

• Personal cloud storage accounts
• Business and workspace cloud storage accounts

You can connect multiple accounts from the same provider or different providers, depending on your plan.

Plans and Limits

All Cloud Hub does not impose artificial limits on transfer bandwidth.

Transfers happen directly between your browser and the connected cloud services, without being permanently stored or throttled by All Cloud Hub servers.

Plan limits are based on the number of cloud storage accounts you can connect:

• Free plan allows up to three connected cloud accounts
• Power User plan allows unlimited connected cloud accounts

There are no limits based on file size imposed by All Cloud Hub itself.

Tip

If you work across multiple clients or projects, connecting all your cloud accounts early makes FilesVerse more effective from day one.

Permissions and Security

All Cloud Hub only accesses the permissions required to provide its features.

Files remain stored in their original cloud storage accounts at all times. All Cloud Hub does not store file contents. Only the minimum required file metadata is handled temporarily over a secure connection to display details and perform operations. Files are not downloaded unless you explicitly choose to.

You can disconnect any cloud account at any time. Once disconnected, All Cloud Hub immediately loses access to that account and its files.

Temporary metadata is automatically cleared once the related task is completed or the account is disconnected.

What You Need to Get Started

To start using All Cloud Hub, you need:

• A supported web browser
• At least one supported cloud storage account
• Permission to authorize access to that account

Once connected, FilesVerse becomes your central workspace for managing files across all your cloud storage services.

In Summary

All Cloud Hub works with the cloud services you already use.

As long as you have a supported browser and at least one supported cloud storage account, you can start viewing, searching, organizing, transferring, and syncing files from one unified dashboard.

This page explains the common terms you will see while using All Cloud Hub.

If you are ever unsure what something means inside the dashboard, this is a good place to start.

FilesVerse

FilesVerse is the main dashboard in All Cloud Hub.

It is a unified workspace where files and folders from all your connected cloud storage accounts are displayed together. From FilesVerse, you can browse, search, organize, transfer, and sync files without opening individual cloud apps.

FilesVerse does not store your actual files. It shows and manages files that live in your connected cloud accounts by securely retrieving and handling the required file metadata.

Note

Seeing all files together does not combine your cloud accounts. Each file still belongs to its original cloud storage service.

Cloud Account

A Cloud Account is a cloud storage account you connect to All Cloud Hub.

Examples include Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive. Once connected, the account appears under the Cloud Accounts section.

You can connect or disconnect cloud accounts at any time.

Drive

In All Cloud Hub, a Drive refers to a connected cloud storage account.

For example, your Google Drive or Dropbox account is treated as a separate drive inside FilesVerse. This helps distinguish where files come from, even when they are displayed together.

FilesVerse Search

FilesVerse Search allows you to search across all connected cloud drives at once.

Instead of searching separately inside each cloud service, you can search once and see results from all connected accounts in a single list. Actions like rename, move, copy, or transfer can be performed directly from the search results.

Transfer

A Transfer is the action of copying or moving files or folders from one cloud drive to another.

When you start a transfer, files move directly between the cloud services. They do not pass through All Cloud Hub servers for permanent storage. Required file metadata and transfer state are handled temporarily over a secure connection unless you choose to download the files.

You can choose between copying a file or moving it fully to another cloud drive.

Warning

Moving a file removes it from the source cloud drive. Use Copy if you want to keep the file in both locations.

Source Drive

The Source Drive is the cloud drive where a file or folder currently exists.

This is the starting point for transfers, moves, and sync operations.

Destination Drive

The Destination Drive is the cloud drive where files or folders are copied or moved to.

During transfers, you always select a destination drive so All Cloud Hub knows where the files should go.

Sync

Sync keeps folders aligned across different cloud storage accounts.

All Cloud Hub supports real-time, two-way syncing. When a change is made in one synced folder, the same change is reflected in the connected folder on the other cloud drive.

Sync helps ensure folders stay consistent without manual updates.

Logs

Logs show information about file actions and transfers performed through All Cloud Hub. These are generated from operational metadata and task status, not file contents.

Logs help you understand what actions were taken and whether they were completed successfully. They are useful for tracking activity and troubleshooting issues.

Metadata

Metadata refers to basic information about files, such as file name, path, and size.

All Cloud Hub uses metadata to display file details, power search, and manage operations inside FilesVerse. This metadata is handled temporarily over a secure connection and is removed once the related task is completed.

The actual file contents always remain in your cloud storage accounts.

Across the platform, All Cloud Hub minimizes data handling to only what is required for visibility, control, and reliability.

In Summary

All Cloud Hub terminology is designed to reflect how you already think about your cloud storage.

FilesVerse is where everything comes together. Drives represent your connected cloud accounts. Transfers, sync, and search help you work across them without switching tools.

System Requirements and Supported Cloud Services: What you need to use All Cloud Hub and which cloud providers are currently supported.

All Cloud Hub is designed to work with your existing cloud storage accounts, not replace them.

Instead of moving your files into a new system, All Cloud Hub connects to the cloud services you already use and brings them together into a single working view called FilesVerse.

This section explains what happens behind the scenes when you connect cloud accounts and start working with your files.

Step 1: Connecting Your Cloud Storage Accounts

To get started, you connect one or more cloud storage accounts to All Cloud Hub.

All Cloud Hub currently supports Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive. Connecting an account is done securely using OAuth. This means you sign in directly with the cloud provider and grant permission without sharing your password.

Write access is required so that you can rename, organize, transfer, and sync files directly from the All Cloud Hub dashboard.

Once connected, the account appears under Cloud Accounts.

Note

Connecting a cloud account does not move or copy any files. It only allows All Cloud Hub to work with files that already exist in your cloud storage.

Step 2: Viewing All Files in FilesVerse

After connecting your cloud accounts, FilesVerse becomes your main workspace.

FilesVerse shows files and folders from all connected cloud storage accounts together in one unified dashboard. Files remain stored in their original cloud locations, while FilesVerse securely retrieves the required file metadata to let you work with them from a single view.

You do not need to switch between cloud apps to browse or organize your files. FilesVerse brings everything into one place while keeping ownership and storage unchanged.

Tip

Seeing files from multiple cloud accounts together does not merge them. Each file still belongs to its original cloud storage service.

Step 3: Searching Across Cloud Drives

FilesVerse includes a unified search that works across all connected cloud accounts.

When you search for a file or folder, All Cloud Hub looks across every connected drive at once and shows the results in a single list. You no longer need to repeat the same search in different cloud services.

Search results can be acted on directly. You can rename, move, copy, or transfer files straight from FilesVerse.

Step 4: Organizing and Managing Files

All Cloud Hub allows you to manage files directly from the dashboard.

You can rename files and folders, move them within a cloud drive, or copy and move them between different cloud storage services. These actions use the permissions you granted when connecting your accounts.

All changes happen directly in your cloud storage accounts. All Cloud Hub does not create local copies or store your actual files on its own servers. Only the required file metadata is handled temporarily to perform these actions.

Warning

Moving a file removes it from the source cloud drive. Use Copy if you want to keep the original file in both locations.

Step 5: Transferring Files Between Cloud Services

When you transfer files using All Cloud Hub, the transfer happens directly between your browser and the connected cloud services.

Files are transferred securely without being permanently stored by All Cloud Hub. Required file metadata and transfer state are handled temporarily over a secure connection and removed once the task is completed.

You can choose whether to copy files or move them. Copying creates a new copy in the destination cloud while keeping the original file. Moving transfers the file fully to the destination cloud.

Transfers happen in real time. If multiple transfers are started, they are queued so nothing is lost.

Tip

Because transfers are direct and do not rely on All Cloud Hub servers, there are no artificial bandwidth limits imposed by All Cloud Hub.

Step 6: Keeping Folders in Sync

All Cloud Hub supports real-time, two-way folder syncing.

When sync is enabled between folders in different cloud storage accounts, changes made in one location are reflected in the other. This helps keep shared or mirrored folders aligned across clouds without manual effort.

Sync works alongside FilesVerse, so you can monitor and manage synced folders from the same dashboard where you manage all other files.

Step 7: Visibility and Logs

All Cloud Hub provides visibility into file actions and transfers. Logs are based on operational metadata and task status, not file contents.

You can view logs related to transfers and operations to understand what actions were performed and their status. This helps you track activity and troubleshoot issues when needed.

How All Cloud Hub Handles Your Data

All Cloud Hub only accesses the metadata required to provide its features, such as file names, paths, and sizes.

Your actual files remain in your cloud storage accounts at all times. All Cloud Hub does not store or process file contents. Temporary metadata and session data used during active tasks is cleared automatically once the task is completed or the account is disconnected.

All Cloud Hub is designed to minimize data handling to only what is required for functionality, visibility, and reliability.

In Summary

All Cloud Hub works by connecting your existing cloud storage accounts, bringing their files into a unified dashboard, and allowing you to work across them from one place.

FilesVerse becomes your central workspace, while your files stay exactly where they belong.

All Cloud Hub Terminology Explained: A quick guide to the terms you will see across the dashboard and documentation.

All Cloud Hub is a cloud storage manager that lets you view, search, transfer and organize files across multiple cloud storage services from one unified dashboard.

If you use more than one cloud storage account for work, personal projects, or different clients, All Cloud Hub helps you manage everything from one place without switching between apps or downloading files to your device.

At the center of All Cloud Hub is FilesVerse, a unified workspace where files from all your connected cloud accounts come together.

Why All Cloud Hub Exists

Using multiple cloud storage services is rarely a planned decision. It usually grows over time.

You might start with a personal Google Drive. Then a client shares files over Dropbox. Later, a work account uses OneDrive. Before you realize it, your files are spread across different platforms.

This leads to constant switching between cloud apps, repeating searches for the same file, downloading files just to upload them elsewhere, and confusion around which version is the latest.

All Cloud Hub exists to remove that friction. It gives you a single place to work with all your cloud files, while keeping your files stored safely in their original cloud accounts, with only the minimum required file information handled temporarily to power the experience.

What You Can Do with All Cloud Hub

With All Cloud Hub, you can:

• View files and folders from all connected cloud accounts together
• Search across multiple cloud drives at once
• Rename and organize files directly from the dashboard
• Transfer files and folders between cloud services without downloading them
• Keep folders in sync across different cloud storage accounts

All of this happens inside FilesVerse, the All Cloud Hub unified dashboard.

What is FilesVerse?

FilesVerse is the main workspace in All Cloud Hub.

It is a unified dashboard where files and folders from all connected cloud storage accounts are displayed together. From this single view, you can browse, search, and manage files regardless of which cloud they belong to.

You no longer need to open Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive separately to find or organize your files. FilesVerse brings everything into one working view.

FilesVerse shows a unified view by securely fetching and temporarily handling file metadata, not by copying or storing your files.

Who All Cloud Hub Is For

All Cloud Hub is currently designed for individuals and professionals who work across multiple cloud storage services.

This includes freelancers, small business owners, designers, photographers, and video creators who manage files for different projects, clients, or purposes.

Support for small teams, agencies, and enterprise workflows is planned for the future.

What All Cloud Hub Does Not Do

To set clear expectations, All Cloud Hub:

• Does not replace Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, or any other cloud storage service
• Does not download files to your device unless you explicitly choose to
• Does not modify, move, or delete files without your action
• Does not store your files on its own servers – only temporary file metadata (such as file name, size, type, and status) is processed securely to display details and manage tasks, and is removed once the task is completed

Your files always remain in your cloud storage accounts, under your control.

How Your Files Stay Secure

All Cloud Hub connects to cloud storage services using secure authorization methods.

You choose which cloud accounts to connect and grant the permissions required to manage files. Files remain stored in their original cloud locations at all times. Transfers happen directly between your browser and the connected cloud services.

All Cloud Hub does not store or cache your actual files. To enable file visibility and transfer progress, All Cloud Hub temporarily processes essential file metadata over a secure connection, which is automatically deleted once the operation is completed.

You can disconnect a cloud account at any time from the Cloud Accounts section.

Getting Started

Once you sign in to All Cloud Hub, the first step is to connect at least one cloud storage account.

From there, FilesVerse becomes your central workspace where you can view all your files, search across drives, and start organizing or transferring files immediately.

Tip

If you connect more than one cloud account early on, FilesVerse becomes more useful right away. You can see how files from different clouds appear together and work across them without switching tabs.
