    Dear Catherine,

    Thank you for your forum post.

    I believe you're referring to Google Photos? As OCA Spaces doesn't support content available in your Google Drive, and would otherwise need to be manually downloaded, reuploaded and inserted within OCA Spaces.

    In the event you are referring to Google Photos and if you haven't already done so, you'll first need to enable Jetpack.

    You can do this by accessing the WordPress Dashboard and selecting 'Jetpack' - located in the left hand menu - followed by 'Connect with Jetpack'. Upon selecting this option, you'll be prompted to select the 'Sign in with Google' option, and if necessary, select your OCA email account. Once your Jetpack account has been created and connected to your learning log on OCA Spaces, you'll be prompted to select a 'Plan', but can select the 'Start with Free' option, often located towards the bottom of the page.

    Having followed this process correctly, and when using the Gutenberg Editor and inserting any image related block, you'll now find the 'Google Photos' option, where you'll first be prompted to connect your OCA email account, before having access to your entire Google Photos library.
