Drivebase

Drivebase is a unified file storage API that lets developers integrate multiple cloud storage providers through a single, consistent interface. Instead of managing separate SDKs and auth flows for Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, and others, Drivebase centralizes access so applications can handle files, folders, and permissions from one place. Its primary purpose is to simplify building file-centric features in modern SaaS products, internal tools, and data workflows without the overhead of custom integrations for each provider.

Key capabilities include unified authentication, normalized file and folder models, and standardized operations such as listing, uploading, downloading, moving, and deleting files across providers. Drivebase abstracts away provider-specific differences in APIs, rate limits, and permission models, allowing developers to write one integration that works across multiple storage backends. It supports webhooks and event handling so applications can respond to changes in connected drives in near real time. Robust security and permission handling ensure that access is scoped correctly to each user and storage provider.
