Use fylr in Google docs via CI HUB

Tutorial on how to get images from a fylr into a google document

Previoustypo3 pluginNextAPI

Last updated 3 months ago

Required

  • Login to a fylr instance with permission to see at least on image asset.

    • This fylr needs to have the CI HUB capability in its fylr license. This is not part of all fylr licenses.

    • By default all fylr installations have the "OAuth client" named "ci-hub" configured, so this should not be an issue. However, during a fylr installation, this could theoretically be changed. If you have problems to connect CI HUB to fylr, check this with the fylr's administrator.

Steps

  1. Open a Google document on

  2. Open the Extensions menu and select Get Add-ons.

  3. In this new dialog, search for CI HUB and install it. This will then happen automatically inside Google docs and not on your computer's local storage.

  4. In the Extensions menu again, select CI HUB Connector and Open:

  5. In the appearing panel (right hand side of the document) Login either with an existing CI HUB ID or Register for a free trial with CI HUB:

  6. After you logged in with your CI HUB ID, the side panel should change (you may have to re-open it).

  7. In the CI HUB side panel, search for fylr and click the plus button (marked in green below):

  8. Enter any fylr URL (where you have a login) and click Login:

  9. Log in to the appearing fylr login dialog with your fylr credentials.

  10. Go back to the Google document. In the side panel e.g. click on the magnifying glass.

  11. Then click on the magnifying class below the first one, to search for any asset in fylr. Both magnifying glasses are marked in green here:

  12. If nothing is found, you may have to choose an Object Type in the drop down menu Object Type.

  13. Click on one preview image once, then click on it a 2nd time and drag it into your document before releasing the click.

Wait a few seconds for the transfer. (There is a spinning circle in the preview as long as CI HUB is working on it.)

Known errors

  • After clicking Login in Step 8: Authorization failed Sorry, an unexpected error ocurred: TypeError: Cannot destructure property 'systemUrl' of '(intermediate value)' as it is undefined. When trying again a few minutes later, it worked.

  • When dragging an image from the CI HUB panel into the document: Error: executePanelCommand failed: Exception: The image in the BlobSource could not be retrieved. Please make sure the image is valid. Seems to be a kind of timeout with bigger images. Did work when I tried it the 2nd time.
