Step 2. Set up a shared Google Drive Folder

  2. Add employee images in JPG format and make sure that each JPG's file name is the employee's email address to which the image belongs.
  3. Share your employee image folder with read-only permissions to the following account:

You may create subfolders to manage groups of employees. SpaceIQ can work with as many subfolders as you need. DO NOT copy any subfolders outside of the root folder.

You will also get an email with instructions assisting with setup.
