Authentication

Google Drive uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Google Drive account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Google Drive and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Google Drive API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

emailprofilehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drivehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly
OAuth Request Configurations:
  1. authorization
    GEThttps://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id={{oauth.client_id}}&state={{oauth.state}}&redirect_uri={{oauth.redirect_uri}}&response_type=code&scope={{oauth.space_separated_scopes}}&access_type=offline&prompt=consent
  2. accessToken
    POSThttps://oauth2.googleapis.com/tokencontent-type: application/x-www-form-urlencodedaccept: application/json
    client_id={{oauth.client_id}}&client_secret={{oauth.client_secret}}&grant_type=authorization_code&code={{oauth.code}}&redirect_uri={{oauth.redirect_uri}}
  3. refreshToken
