Secure Google Drive is a remote MCP server that gives AI assistants controlled access to your Google Drive. Connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client and let the AI find files, read documents, organize folders, copy templates, and share files, all routed through PortEden, the data firewall for AI. Your data. Your rules.
A typical "Google Drive MCP" hands the model your full Drive scope. Secure Google Drive inspects and redacts sensitive content before the AI sees it, holds the AI to the permissions you grant, logs every call, and lets you revoke access in one click.
Why Secure Google Drive
- Inspect and redact. Sensitive data (SSNs, card numbers, passport numbers, API keys) is masked before any file content reaches the AI.
- Scoped permissions. The AI only does what your token allows, per user, per AI, per project.
- One-click revoke. Cut access instantly, effective on the very next request.
- Full audit trail. Every read, write, share, and delete is logged.
- Nothing stored. No tokens, no cache, no database in the connector.
What you can do
- Find files: "Find the Q2 budget spreadsheet."
- Read contents: "Read the onboarding doc and summarize it."
- Organize: "Create a folder for the launch and move the brief into it."
- Copy and rename: "Copy the template and rename it 'Q3 Plan'."
- Share: "Share the budget with Maria as a viewer."
- Check access: "Who has access to the contract folder?"

Supported providers
Google Drive. Connect it inside PortEden.
Getting started
- Create a free PortEden account at https://porteden.com.
- Connect your Google account inside PortEden.
- Generate a PortEden access key (it starts with
pe_mcp_) and paste it into the config above as your Bearer token.
Prefer OAuth 2.0? Add the URL https://mcp.porteden.com/drive to your client with no token and sign in. For a client that needs a stdio bridge, use mcp-remote:
{
"mcpServers": {
"secure-google-drive": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.porteden.com/drive"]
}
}
}
Works with
Claude (Desktop, web, and Code), ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, Grok, and Cursor, plus any client that speaks MCP Streamable HTTP. Authentication: paste a PortEden access key (a pe_mcp_ Bearer token), or connect over OAuth 2.0 (OAuth 2.1 with RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata and dynamic client registration).
FAQ
Can the AI delete or share my files? Only if you grant those permissions. You can keep it read-only or allow create, update, share, and delete.
Does the AI read sensitive file contents? Only what your permissions allow, after PII redaction.
Where is my data stored? Nowhere in the connector. It is stateless. PortEden enforces permissions, quotas, redaction, and audit logging.
