How to send mail by google drive

You can't directly send mail from Google Drive, as it's a cloud storage service and not an email client. However, you can use Google Drive to store and share files, and then use other services or tools to send emails with attachments. Here are a few ways to achieve this:

Method 1: Using Google Drive's built-in sharing feature

  1. Upload your file to Google Drive.
  2. Right-click on the file and select "Get link" or "Share".
  3. Choose the permission level you want to grant (e.g., "Anyone with the link can view" or "Anyone with the link can edit").
  4. Copy the link and share it with the recipient via email or messaging app.
  5. The recipient can then click on the link to access the file in Google Drive.

Method 2: Using Google Drive's integration with Gmail

  1. Upload your file to Google Drive.
  2. Open Gmail and compose a new email.
  3. Click on the "Attach file" button and select the file from Google Drive.
  4. The file will be attached to the email, and you can send it to the recipient.

Method 3: Using third-party services or add-ons

  1. Upload your file to Google Drive.
  2. Use a third-party service or add-on that integrates with Google Drive and allows you to send emails with attachments. Some examples include:
    • Boomerang: A Gmail add-on that allows you to send emails with attachments from Google Drive.
    • Sendinblue: A cloud-based email marketing platform that integrates with Google Drive.
    • Zoho Workplace: A cloud-based productivity suite that includes email and file sharing features.

Method 4: Using Google Drive's API

  1. Upload your file to Google Drive.
  2. Use Google Drive's API to programmatically access and download the file.
  3. Use a programming language like Python or JavaScript to send an email with the file attachment using a library like smtplib or nodemailer.

Keep in mind that these methods may have limitations, such as file size restrictions or security concerns. Always check the terms of service and security guidelines before sharing files or sending emails with attachments.
