Is there plugin or embeded code patch that I can use to give website visitors the ability to upload a file from Google Drive? The use case is a jobs website. We'd like people to upload their resumes but most users on mobile devices don't have resume file stored on their phone. So, we'd like to give them the option of uploaded a saved resume from Google Drive.
I have not found a solution yet.

Good day
My problem i added the google drive api to get for files larger than 100mb no virus warning message from google drive
without google api its like this warning after clicking the link
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1DyXunnAetC9Xc8Ur0poTmLWo7Yo3DylZ
i want the download without that warning message i mean a direct download
so i created an api and created an direct download link over this site
https://www.wonderplugin.com/online-tools/google-drive-direct-link-generator/
what i get is this
https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/11KPre5Rr3i9jqUr2QdlS-98Kl4wuaW6Z?alt=media&key=AIzaSyBybF13v7u-zXnruCs6uJ9I1QxoDFe0miw
it works correctly the warning message is bypassed but the name of the file is also changed to the file id this would look for customers of my cloud really scary like a virus and not like a apk file or something
so what i want is that the file name will be displayed by downloading and not something crazy like 037eugd98zr9u2dßih9ud237
without api the warning apears but the download file has the file name and not the ß30ru329fie2hfe crazy name :D
can someone help me?
I just uploaded gigabytes of photos to google drive using Google Backup and Sync(https://www.google.com/intl/en_as/drive/download/backup-and-sync/). But I cannot reach those file from Google Colab since it can only display files in "My Drive" but not /drive/Computer/MY Mac Book Pro/Files/... And I can not move those files to "My Drive", it saids server error. I am using free spaces account from G-suit.
I was having a similliar issue.. I dont know if this is what made it work for me, but try closing the back up and sync program
I need to understand whether there is a way to incremental upload to Google Colaboratory.
I was trying to upload a huge number of image files to Google Colaboratory when my Internet connection failed and I had to start again. I observed that the images, which were already uploaded, where now getting duplicated.
Is there any way that only missed files get uploaded? This will save time and space.
I suggest you not to upload them just in Colab, because there is no solution to this problem, you just need to re-select manually the files not uploaded yet. I suggest you to use the google.colab package to manage these problems in Colab. Just upload everything you need to your google drive, then import:
from google.colab import drive
drive.mount('/content/gdrive')
In this way, you just need to login to your google account through google authentication API, and you can use files/folders as if they were uploaded on Colab. In this way, you can manage connection errors, since you're uploading them to google drive, and you can choose between overwriting existing files or just skip them.
Does anyone have an example of VBA code to automatically download a file from Google Drive. I can get to viewing the file in Chrome but then I have to manually select 'Download'. I would like to press a button and then pick the downloaded file from my default 'Download' folder. No in-between intervention.
One option would be to launch the users default web browser with a direct link to download your file from Google Drive, this would prompt the user to Save As / Open your user guide in the same way that it would if they clicked to download a PDF from a website and so might be sufficient.
This question's answer details how to open a url in browser, and you can use this website to create direct download links from Google Drive share links.
Using the 'GetspecialFolder' UDF, you can download files from any cloud drive as simple as:
FileCopy GetSpecialFolder(vbDirGoogleDrive) & "MyFile.DOC", GetSpecialFolder(vbDirDownloads) & "MyFile.DOC"

I am testing a Google Chrome notebook. Whenever I download a file it goes to a folder called "File shelf" which is somehow connected to my Gmail account. Is it possible to access this folder on a "normal" system running any browser? I did not find how to do it yet. In general, is there a description on how to manage this folder: delete, copy to external storage (USB), etc?
The 'File shelf' is not connected to your Gmail. It's a place on the SSD. If you click 'Ctrl-M' you will get a folder with all the files on your local SSD.
Once you are in the folder - right click will give you the options to delete/rename each file.
If you want wish to do more with this new File API - here is a post I've wrote on it.
Good luck.
