Hi all,

I’m trying to integrate the `GoogleDrivePicker` plugin with Uppy v4.17.0 and running into a `404` error when it attempts to POST to:

```auto
POST https://DOMAIN/companion/google-picker/get
→ 404 (Not Found)

```

* * *

### ✅ Setup

- **Uppy version:** `v4.17.0`
- **Companion:** `transloadit/companion:latest` (running via Docker on port `3020`)
- **Frontend companion URL:**  
`companionUrl: 'https://DOMAIN/companion'`
- **Reverse proxy:** Apache 2.4 (proxying `/companion` to `localhost:3020`)

```auto
.use(GoogleDrivePicker, {
  companionUrl: 'DOMAIN/companion',
  clientId: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
  apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY',
  appId: 'YOUR_APP_ID',
  locale: {
    strings: {
      pickFiles: 'Select files from Google Drive'
    }
  }
});

```

* * *

### ✅ Google Cloud Console Config

**Authorized JavaScript origins:**

```auto
https://DOMAIN

```

**Authorized redirect URIs:**

```auto
https://DOMAINt/companion/drive/redirect

```

is the redirect url correct there is no documentation on this for google file picker  
tried [https://DOMAIN/companion/file/redirect](https://DOMAIN/companion/file/redirect)  
[https://DOMAIN/companion/googledrivepicker/redirect](https://DOMAIN/companion/googledrivepicker/redirect)  
[https://DOMAIN/companion/GoogleDrivePicker/redirect](https://DOMAIN/companion/GoogleDrivePicker/redirect)  
[https://DOMAIN/companion/google-picker/redirect](https://DOMAIN/companion/google-picker/redirect)  
[https://DOMAIN/companion/drive/redirect](https://DOMAIN/companion/drive/redirect)

* * *

### ❌ Problem

- Google Picker UI opens and allows login.
- After selecting files, Uppy attempts to `POST /google-picker/get` — and fails with 404.
- Remote sources like Dropbox and OneDrive work fine.
- There’s no mention of `/google-picker/get` in the Companion docs or codebase.

* * *

Any help, guidance, or working examples would be much appreciated!

Thanks,  
**Chris**

> \- \[\] Have Google Photos not open in a new window/tab but instead in a modal dialog like Google Drive (I don't know if that's even possible) - we get a \`pickerUri\` which we currently \`window.open\`. According to Google docs \`The pickerUri cannot be opened in an iframe due to security reasons\`
