Google Drive converter: Difference between revisions

Files submitted by students in assignments may be converted to PDF files with the Google Drive converter (available in Moodle 3.3 onwards). Teachers can then annotate directly on the submissions.
This option provides a useful alternative for those organisations who are unable to install Unconv for document conversion.
To use the Google Drive converter, an admin must first enable the OAuth 2 Google service
They must then ensure the correct service has been selected from the drop down on the Google Drive converter settings screen in the Plugins section of Site adminstration.
A link is available to test the document conversion is working correctly.
