How can I get share link of file/folder by path to the file on insalled google drive in python?

Question

I installed Google Drive on my computer (Windows 11 x64) to drive G:\ I want to be able to get a shared link for a specific file/folder that I have a path to. Google Drive will have duplicate file/folder. How can i do this whith python? Thanks in advance

Edited: I managed to get a link for specific file name, but now I have a problem if there are 2+ files with the same file name in Google Drive. For example I want link of this file G:\RootFolder\Subfolder1\Subfolder2\myfile.txt but there is another file with same name G:\RootFolder\Subfolder3\Subfolder4\Subfolder5\myfile.txt. How can I give link only for G:\RootFolder\Subfolder1\Subfolder2\myfile.txt ?

Answer 1

from Google import Create_Service

CLIENT_SECRET_FILE = 'client-secret.json'
API_NAME = 'drive'
API_VERSION = 'v3'
SCOPES = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive']

service = Create_Service(CLIENT_SECRET_FILE, API_NAME, API_VERSION, SCOPES)

# Update Sharing Setting
file_id = '<file id>'

request_body = {
    'role': 'reader',
    'type': 'anyone'
}

response_permission = service.permissions().create(
    fileId=file_id,
    body=request_body
).execute()

print(response_permission)


# Print Sharing URL
response_share_link = service.files().get(
    fileId=file_id,
    fields='webViewLink'
).execute()

print(response_share_link)

# Remove Sharing Permission
service.permissions().delete(
    fileId=file_id,
    permissionId='anyoneWithLink'
).execute()

%DATE%, %TIME%, %USERDOMAIN%, and %USERNAME% are all automatic variables you can use.

Something similar to echo|set/p="%DATE% %TIME% - %USERDOMAIN% - %USERNAME%" && echo; >> log.txt would accomplish what you want.

I like using echo|set/p="" because quoted strings are less likely to cause problems, like if %USERNAME% or %USERDOMAIN% contains a character that causes cmd to think the echo command is over before it's supposed to be. && echo; creates a linebreak.

Just add the requirement into the first line and ensure you exit before the logging

@echo off &Title "%~0" &echo Run %date%%time% by %userprofile%>>"%~0"

rem Your main task goes here

exit /b

Logging starts here
