Google Drive
Google Drive is a cloud-based file storage service. You can use Amazon Kendra to index documents stored in shared drives, My Drives, and Shared with me folders in your Google Drive data source. You can index both Google Workspace documents as well as documents listed in Types of documentation. You can also use inclusion and exclusion filters to index content by file name, file type, and file path.
