Bug ID: 149693
Summary: Improve Google Drive service setup
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needsUXEval
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]

As cloph has changed internals to make Google Drive work again in tdf#101630,
the resulting UX is very sub-optimal. Not discussing an ideal solution (which
would be using the normal browser-based authentication), here I focus on how to
improve the current workflow.
See the procedure description at
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/remote-files-and-google-drive-problems/78875/2.
The problems are:
1. In the File Services dialog, the fields that are not used for Google Drive
authentication are shown. At least password box should be hidden. (Username is
also not used, but it's easy to type it and have the "label" filled
appropriately.)
2. In the Authentication Code dialog, the URL that user needs to follow to
obtain the auth code from Google (a) should be the first entry (above the box
where to put the response), and (b) should be a clickable link instead of an
edit box.
