Data exchange with FileMaker Go on iPad

[John F]

Good evening all.

I am developing an App for the iPad where I need to import new orders into a FileMaker Go orders database from a Google Cloud Drive. 

I need to process the order in FileMaker Go then export the updates to Google Drive.

From what I have read FileMaker Go can only import and export from the Documents or the Temp folder.  Neither of the folders appear to be accessible from another app, 

I am using FileBrowserGo to sync with Google Cloud. Unfortunately this app is not able to link with the FileMaker Documents or Temp folder. Possibly it is, but I don't know how to do it.

I am not able to host the database on a FileMaker server because the iPads frequently will not have internet access.

Any suggestions as to how I can import and Export would be greatly appreciated.

I’d look into exchanging data using their api. https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/reference/files
