Here’s how to track your Google files and documents once you have downloaded the app. If you are new to Google Drive and want to take precautions by tracking any future activity (including who is downloading your files), we recommend downloading this app as soon as you start using Google Drive. The downside of using this free feature is that it only tracks your activity once you have already downloaded the app. Once the software download is complete, you will be able to access the Google Apps Admin Console. By downloading Google Apps Unlimited, users can directly monitor any downloads on Google Drive or Google Docs. However, the service does not let you see who has been accessing your files, only that they have been changed.
Scroll down until you see your recent activity.Īccessing your history is the first step towards seeing if anyone has been downloading, or tampering with, your Google Drive files.
Find the file you wish to check and tap the three dots.
For any older changes, scroll on the right-hand side.
To get more specific, you can select the file or folder to see the activity specifics.
Hit “Activity” to access any recent changes.
Select the info icon (a gray circle with a white, lower case “i” in the middle) in the top-right corner.
Click “My Drive,” located on the left-hand side.
Make sure the slider indicates that link-sharing is on and that everyone with the link can view.
Select the drop-down arrow by your folder name.
Here’s another way to create a view only folder in Google Drive. You’ve no doubt noticed that while working with Google Drive, there is more than one way to accomplish a task.

Adjust your sharing settings by selecting the sharing icon.
Select your folder by “single clicking” it.
To create a view only folder in Google Drive: I was recently asked on Twitter about the “view only” setting on Google Drive folders, so I thought I would share a quick tutorial on how (and why!) to create this type of folder in Drive. I also love the ability to search my Drive … but that’s another post for another day! I love love love folders! In case you haven’t noticed … I’m a bit of a Google Drive nut 🙂 It seems more and more classrooms are jumping on the Google bandwagon – to the benefit of everyone!Ī great feature of Google Drive is organization through folders. Google Drive is a FANTASTIC tool for teachers and students.
