### Deprecation Notice
Due to the move to Python 3 starting with Kodi v19 (Matrix) the option for Google Drive as a storage target was removed. Many of the libraries needed were not Python 3 compatible. This may change in the future however current Matrix compatible versions of the Backup addon don't have Google Drive support. An alternative method to get backups already in Google Drive would be to download them locally first for restoration.
### Instructions

Instructions for enable the Google API for Google Drive can be found here (https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/python/start/get_started). You'll need the client id and client secret generated for the addon settings. You only need to follow Step 1. Using the Google Drive target is very similar to the Dropbox one.
