  • Viewer permission to be able to find and select the folder to link
• Selecting a destination folder for a generated document
  • Editor permission on the destination folder
• Creating a new Template
  • Editor permissions to the root templates folder (when Drive Connect creates this folder, it gives everyone in your domain editor permission by default)
