Google Drive iPad. What URLs does it go to? Firewall.

[DCUK6]

Hi,

 

Google drive doesn't like the LEAs new https web filter so using wpad.dat file

i'm trying to send all google drive data through the old proxy to make the app work.

 

If I redirect all *google* data then the app works but it also stops filtering on google searches as google is now https.

 

Using this site

https://support.google.com/drive/answer/1211661?hl=enive

ive got the login screen on the app to show but it now will loin but wont show any files.

 

Heres the sites im redirecting,

(shExpMatch(url, "*docs*.google.com*") ||

shExpMatch(url, "*ssl.gstatic.com*") ||

shExpMatch(url, "*.googleusercontent.com*") ||

shExpMatch(url, "*gg.google.com*") ||

shExpMatch(url, "*.googleapis.com*"))

 

Anyone have a internet filter that can show what sites the ipad app tries to access?

I've just had a play with my iPad to open and edit a few documents.

 

The site it used for me were...

 

m.google.com - this could have been my email actually.

ssl.gstatic.com

googleapis.com

clients3.google.com

docs.google.com

csi.gstatic.com

accounts.google.com

googledrive.com

fonts.gstatic.com

 

Google hasn't yet forced safe search - so I'm guessing your provider has removed the no ssl search DNS hack early...

Thanks IrritableTech.

 

Now logged in and documents are showing up on the list.

 

Try to open a form in safari and get "You cannot browse this page at "docs.google.com" because it is restricted.

 

Now need to work out who is restricting it.

 

Creating documents work however and uploading pics. Getting there
