Hello 

 

I am unable to load an Excel Binary file on G Drive as an input file.  The connector does not have option for Excel Binary file.  Please help.

It has the same issues your google drive tool had with Server.

 

to authenticate the GDrive tool or to use a mapped drive you will basically need a google account for your Server. If you have that  you can map the network drive.

 

Google Drive as a Server network drive is often a rough solution. Google Drive's tend to authenticate via SSO in enterprise deployments. Server does not play nice with SSO for obvious reasons (it's basically a robot user).
