Google accounts set up in online accounts work fine, apart from Google drive. Nothing is mounted in Nemo and this integration just generally seems missing.
I know I can use something like OCamlFUSE, but the normal Online account integration is a lot less hassle when it works
I wrote a how-to for this a couple years ago. You have to install a couple additional packages. I’ll look on the old forum and try to find it.

No luck here. I installed gvfs-goa and gvfs-google. I go to System Settings and click Online Accounts:

Thank you! This really helped me
