Google Drive Connected System Integration Operations - Not working with for a SHARED folder in google drive

All,

I am trying to using Google Drive connected system(https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.4/google-drive-connected-system.html) , to create folder, upload and download documents  to and from google drive folders.

Then API  operations  (like createFolder, uploadFile, downloadFile, etc) all work perfectly  on a personal folder of an auth user, but   the same operations are not working on a SHARED folder in google drive, Has anybody got that working with a Shared drive? 

I checked out some documentation on google drive APIs  at (https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/enable-shareddrives?hl=en)  and found out that supportsAllDrives=true  parameter is required to enable these operations on a shared drive. But there is no way in the connected system to pass this information. 

Any ideas? Any suggestion? 

Thanks

Pal

Hi

The Google Drive connected system might have had this update since you wrote this, but I tried and found out that if you use the 'Find File' operation, it actually does send supportsAllDrives=true

this does return me files / folders which are shared to me

Here's my google drive

I even tried to create a folder inside this shared drive folder and it worked without any issues.

Maybe give it a try again or check out the request part and see what parameter values are being sent in your request.

Hope it helps !

Hi [mention:d8b421a354554ef089fa196070da6bf2:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] and [mention:b00f90966ef341dfa5b77435e1ebbc37:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]. I'm facing the same issue. Everything works perfectly on my personal drive, but in shared drives I can list folder contents and find files correctly but as I try to make actions like create folders, upload files and other stuff, the response is a 404 error with a response JSON of the following form (being 1ZpsRPyudhvJHn02Bz5pk1v3xyULl0K7Y the folder I'm trying to interact with):

{ "code" : 404, "errors" : [ { "domain" : "global", "location" : "fileId", "locationType" : "parameter", "message" : "File not found: 1ZpsRPyudhvJHn02Bz5pk1v3xyULl0K7Y.", "reason" : "notFound" } ], "message" : "File not found: 1ZpsRPyudhvJHn02Bz5pk1v3xyULl0K7Y." }

Do you have any insights about this?

Hi [mention:3165266492de40cd8369ac5dfe6cd579:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]

Can you elaborate on how are you achieving this ?

Are you using the Google Drive connected system and what is your configuration (Operation / search terms)

A screenshot of your config with request and response can help me compare yours with mine.

For me, as per my earlier comment, I am still able to create a new folder as well
