Plus one please. It’s so strange that I can create a doc from a template, find the doc etc inside shared drives, but can’t append text. 

has anyone found workarounds?

I would like to add my vote to this feature request also. We have a need to create and upload a Google Doc to a Shared Drive with our university as opposed to a personal folder. This article: 

 claims that is can be done but it does not appear to work for us either. Please let me know if this is on the list of improvements!

Thanks.

@Tilting Point - That’s a great question. Prioritization is largely dependent on the number of customers affected. By adding your vote, I was able to add some weight to the issue!  If there are other users who are seeking the same solution, pointing them to this topic and having them chime in to have their vote added will get additional attention to the demand.

I'm sorry I don't have a more definitive answer here. Thank you for your patience and we will send you an email if there are any updates!

When do you expect this feature to be available?  I keep looking for alternatives but haven’t found much luck, there are a bunch of discussions online with people looking for this feature.
