Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Google Drive	`googleDrive`	`app`	This component uses the Google Drive app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Drive	`drive`	`string`	Defaults to `My Drive`. To use a Shared Drive, use the Changes to Specific Files (Shared Drive) source instead.
Watch for changes to file properties	`watchForPropertiesChanges`	`boolean`	Watch for changes to file properties in addition to changes to content. Defaults to `false`, watching for only changes to content.
Push notification renewal schedule	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	The Google Drive API requires occasional renewal of push notification subscriptions. This runs in the background, so you should not need to modify this schedule.
Files	`files`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Types of updates	`updateTypes`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`syncaddremoveupdatetrashuntrashchange`

Trigger 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

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Google Drive	`googleDrive`	`app`	This component uses the Google Drive app.
Drive	`drive`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Parent Folder	`parent`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Upload Type	`uploadType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`mediaresumablemultipart`
File URL	`fileUrl`	`string`	The URL of the file you want to upload to Google Drive. Must specify either File URL or File Path.
File Path	`filePath`	`string`	The path to the file saved to the `/tmp` directory (e.g. `/tmp/myFile.csv`). Must specify either File URL or File Path.
Ignore Default Visibility	`ignoreDefaultVisibility`	`boolean`	Whether to ignore the domain's default visibility settings for the created file. Domain administrators can choose to make all uploaded files visible to the domain by default; this parameter bypasses that behavior for the request. Permissions are still inherited from parent folders.
Include Permissions For View	`includePermissionsForView`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`published`
