Question

So Google Drive has a lot of security, which is a good thing. By default, my app can only get the files it has itself created on the user's drive. However, I also need to be able to retrieve all files placed by the user (or another app) in one of the folders that my app created.

Example:

My app creates a folder called "Stuff"
Now the user manually uploads a file called "test.txt" and places it in "Stuff".
My app can't see this file, even though the app created the folder that the file is in. This is what I'd like to fix.

In addition, I have seen code on stackoverflow and other places which gives my app access to the user's ENTIRE google drive, but I'd like to avoid doing that. I only need access to the files created inside folders created by my app, not everything. Besides, the code that I found about this was all from 2012 or earlier and doesn't work anymore due to undocumented changes in the PHP API.

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

似乎不可能。我被迫让我的应用程序访问用户的整个驱动器。这是相关的代码：

$client->setScopes(implode(' ', array(
    Google_Service_Drive::DRIVE,
)));

如果有人有更好的解决方案，我很乐意听到。

用户需要使用您的应用打开新上传的文件，以便您可以访问它。我遇到了类似的问题并使用了此处描述的解决方法：Drive API for Android unable to access the file created by same App
