This script allows you to upload files to Google Drive using the Google Drive API. It utilizes the googleapiclient library and requires authentication through a client secret file.
Before running the script, make sure you have the following:
- Python installed on your system.
- The required Python libraries:
pickle,os,google_auth_oauthlib,googleapiclient, andgoogle.auth.transport.requests. You can install them using pip:pip install google-auth google-auth-oauthlib google-auth-httplib2 google-api-python-client - A Google Cloud project with the Google Drive API enabled.
- OAuth 2.0 client credentials (client secret file) for your Google Cloud project. Make sure you download the JSON file and save it securely.
- Place the
Google.pyfile in the same directory as your script (t3.py) or in a location accessible to your script. - In the
t3.pyfile, replace the following placeholders with your own values:<ADD CLIENT SECRET FILE LOCATION>: Path to your client secret file.<FOLDER-NAME>: ID of the folder in Google Drive where you want to upload the files.<FILE-NAME>: List of file names to upload (e.g.,['file1.txt', 'file2.jpg']).<MIME-TYPE>: List of MIME types corresponding to the file names (e.g.,['text/plain', 'image/jpeg']).
To run the script and upload files to Google Drive, execute the t3.py script using Python:
python t3.py
The script will authenticate using the client secret file, upload the specified files to the specified Google Drive folder, and print the ID of each uploaded file.
Note: The first time you run the script, it will prompt you to authorize access to your Google Drive account through a web browser. Follow the instructions in the console to complete the authorization process. The script will save the authentication token in a pickle file (token_drive_v3.pickle) for future use, so you won't need to reauthorize each time you run the script.
