Importing files from Google Drive just got a lot easier. You can now paste Google Drive share links directly, and Altera will handle the rest.


🚀 What’s New
#

  • Google Drive file support – import images, videos, and 3D models directly from Google Drive share links.
  • Automatic filename detection – filenames are pulled from Google Drive metadata, including files with spaces in names.
  • Large file handling – files over 100MB now download correctly by handling Google’s virus scan confirmation page.

🔧 Improvements
#

  • Smarter media type detection – video and 3D model files from Google Drive are now correctly identified and staged.
  • Filename normalization – prevents unnecessary rename errors when filenames differ only by spaces vs underscores.
