Google Docs "Sign in to continue" error
A few days ago (around 4/28/2021) the Google Docs integration to Box stopped working for me. I have tired clearing my cache, incognito mode, and a different browser to not avail.
The error I get is this:
- From Box select New -> Google Doc (or Slide, any Google doc)
- Enter file name
- Hit return
- I get presented with Sign in to continue over and over and over again
Alternatively, you can simple click on a Google Doc and try to Open in Google Doc, same issue.
I am properly logged into Google and tried with a different browser (FireFox) and still get the same error. The file gets created but you cannot edit it in Google Doc.
Any help would be appreciated!
