Question

connected system authorization is canceled after inactivity

Hi,

I have a google drive connected system, I use it in an integration to create folders in google drive.

It works fine, but after a few minutes of inactivity or sign out my account, the authorization is canceled or expires and I have to re-authorize in my concept connected system for my integration to work again.

How can I always leave it active, without the need to authorize it every moment?

I think this is something you might have to change on the Google side.

Did you ever resolve this issue?  I've had a Google Drive connected system since November 2022 that was working perfectly fine until March 15, 2023.  After that date, I have to manually re-authorize the connected system every evening (my process executes nightly to store a document).  From my testing, it seems to expire after about an hour and need re-authorization from the Connected System.  I did not change anything on Appian nor Google.

Thank you.  I suspect it could be on Appian's side.  I have posted a support case and will let you know the outcome.
