Today, we are going to actually start playing with Google Drive APIs. Previous parts served as the basis for implementing web apps using Google APIs. In part 3, we will use Google Drive’s file listing functions to list files and folders and display them on a page.
I assume you have already gone through the authentication and Installation process. I have shared my code on , where we are moving toward building a simple web app to list our Google Drive files and perform operations, etc.
The following is a simple function that fetches the latest 100 files from the user’s Google account and displays them on the page. We are displaying their file titles and their icons, which represent their file types. For example, it can be a spreadsheet, an image, or a folder.
Consolusion
If you look at my complete web app files, you will see I have managed Authentication and other aspects in a way that makes them VERY easy to understand and follow. In any case, you don’t understand or have a better idea to achieve the same thing I did, shout below in comments 😉
