Publish a Google Drive Website with custom Domain

Question

i've heard that you could publish a static website in google drive in a public folder, and i'm wondering how can i configure my domain to that website hosted in drive.

Thank you

For now, you cannot map your own custom domain to Google Drive hosting (i.e. using CNAME or A records), but you can do one of these:

• Set a redirection on your domain to Google Drive, e.g. by uploading an index.php file with <?php header("Location: https://googledrive.com/host/VERYLONGFOLDERID"); ?>
• Use the free service G Drives, which provides custom short URLs (aliases) for Google Drive hosting
