Allowing only a specific URL from Google Drive and not the whole application.

Tarzan — Fri, 12 Jul 2024 15:29:14 GMT

Hello Everyone,

Is it possible to allow only a certain Google Drive URL, but not the whole application? Im still trying to find out on the web, but wanted to ask on here as well. Maybe its something very easy, but I'm not aware of it, sorry.

Thank you for you time and effort.

Without HTTPS Inspection enabled/configured, this will not be possible.
Even with this enabled, you will need to allow access to multiple sites, most likely, as Google uses many different servers to provide service.
This will require some testing with Extended logging enabled while the PC is accessing the relevant URL.

Send links you wish to allow, I have 100% working https inspection lab, can test it easily.

Best,

Andy

Forgot to mention, I also built R82 ssl inspection labn, so can test it there as well, for comparison.

This indeed, you need full https inspection. Only light SSL inspection will not do it, this will check certificate only.

If there is only one rule for example: drive.google.com you can do this with an URL object.

Below this allow rule you could make a drop rule to block application Google Drive.
