Looking to migrate from Uppy v4 to v5. I could see custom provider implementation examples and docs for other providers but I don’t see any way of using Google Drive Picker with the new Headless components.

Is there a way to trigger the Google File Picker dialog using a custom icon?

That’s not possible yet unfortunately. I created an issue [useGoogleDrivePicker · Issue #6062 · transloadit/uppy · GitHub](https://github.com/transloadit/uppy/issues/6062)
