It works just fine, but unlike it's parent add-on, it requires the permission to download, edit, and delete every item in your google drive. I'm sure the developer has a reason to require this access to embed diagrams, but it still makes me uncomfortable. I would definitely use it if it wasn't so greedy with its permissions.

Really helpful addon. The tool is very useful to create any type of diagram easily. Since it is integrated to the Google drive, its very convenient too.

Don't know why it requires a lot of access permissions like see, download all the Google Driver files.

I always have to authorize Draw.io to access my Google Drive, though I already added this app on the G.Suite domain level. Also, when I'm trying to embed the existing diagram from my work Google Doc it's showing me my personal Google Drive content, not even allowing to switch the Google Account that I want to use.

BROKEN IF you have multiple gmail accounts logged in and are not using the default account... If you have multiple accounts logged in it does not detect the proper account when trying to insert a diagram into a document. There is no authorization. I believe it only tries to use the default account? I'm pretty sure this is the problem for most of the users running into authorization issues. In order to get this to work I am forced to log out of my default account, which is VERY inconvenient. For all intents and purposes this add-on does not work for me. It should detect the current account being used for docs and use that...

Best free diagramming software out there. UML/Flowcharts/Modelling is fast and intuitive. Adding or changing colours of each node is simple and efficient. It would be nice if we could set default font size, type, stroke size/colour too.
