@shaunagm here is a list of connectors that definitely need work and which aspects require work. I apologize for the delay, I was worried that my initial audit was a bit too quick and dirty, so I went over them more carefully just now.
Thanks @rgriff23! This is amazingly helpful.
Trying to get started helping, and have been looking at the Google Sheets doc. Setting up/enabling the API on the dev console is non-obvious, but the description of how to do so is probably longer than we want to put in the main doc. Is there an established place for ancillary HowTo docs to go?
Is there a web page provided by Google that describes the API process in detail? You could do a 1-3 sentence summary and link out to the longer instructions.
Not that I have found (though ironically, Googling Google stuff is often a black hole). The best I've found is a third-party description here: https://www.iperiusbackup.net/en/how-to-enable-google-drive-api-and-get-client-credentials/; I'm writing up a quick summary to see how concise I can get it, and will then shop around for a good location.
@shaunagm Just making a note here that once #411 is merged (it should be ready), the AWS connectors are done. And with @davidpablocohn's PR #417 merged, the Google connectors are done too.
Not sure if you want to close out this issue or keep it open for ongoing improvements to the documentation, but I think the goals outlined in description are achieved! :)
That's so exciting! Do you have permission to close issues? If so, once 411 is merged, I'll let you do the honors. ;)

@shaunagm Thanks! I am assuming I don't have permissions, because I don't see the 'Close' button (which I think would appear beneath the comment box).
The connector documentation to be more consistent. Each connector needs, in order:
1) an overview, which explains the service that the connector connects to, and summarizes what subsets of endpoints currently are covered.
2) a detailed guide to getting authentication info.
3) a "quick start guide" that demonstrates instantiating the connector and using a method.
See the action kit connector documentation for an example of what we're looking for.
This doesn't need to be done by a single person in a single PR - feel free to grab a connector by leaving a comment below and submit the updated docs as its own PR.
Here's the current status of the connector docs (thanks to @rgriff23 for the audit!):
