How Google access works

The full Collector Canvas apps can connect to Google. This website’s sample is read-only and does not connect to an account.

In the native apps, connected data is exchanged directly with Google. Your spreadsheets and pictures keep the sharing settings you choose in your Google account. These are the permissions used by the optional features:

01Recognize your account
Basic Google account information, including your email address and available profile information, identifies the connected account and keeps its local workspace separate. This does not give access to Gmail messages.
02Connect collection spreadsheets
Create spreadsheets, import an existing sheet you connect, and synchronize collection changes. Google Sheets permission covers your spreadsheets; Collector Canvas uses the sheets you choose to connect.
03Store collection pictures
Per-file Google Drive access lets the app create picture folders, upload photographs, and discover or read files created by or authorized for the app.
04Display existing linked pictures OPTIONAL
Automatic picture access requests read-only Drive permission, which can see and download all files available to your Google account. The app uses it to retrieve existing pictures linked from your collection. This permission does not let the app modify or delete those files.

A little more clarity.

Can I change the sample collection?

This website is a read-only preview. You can browse, search, filter, zoom, and compare the sample items. Adding, editing, rearranging, deleting, account connections, importing, and exports are disabled. The preview does not save a workspace in your browser, and reloading returns to the original sample. The full Collector Canvas apps support your own collections and optional Google synchronization.

Can I disconnect Google later?

Yes. Sign out in the app to stop the account connection, or revoke its permission in Google Account third-party connections. Signing out or revoking access does not delete local collections or files in Google. Turning automatic pictures off stops the feature; revoke the Google connection to remove the underlying permission grant.

Does Collector Canvas use AI?

Optional AI listing analysis uses an OpenAI API key you configure. It sends listing text and relevant collection field names and types to suggest structured values. It does not automatically send your full collection, pictures, or Google credentials. You can use local parsing without AI. The privacy policy explains this feature and optional external MCP access.

How do I delete my data?

Remove local app data and any separate backups or exports to erase local copies. Delete connected Sheets and Drive files in your Google account when you no longer want them. Uninstalling or disconnecting the app does not delete cloud files, and removing an item picture does not automatically delete the original Drive file. See retention and deletion for details.
