I'm working to download a file via the Google Drive API using the gem google-api-client.
x = Google::Apis::DriveV2
drive = x::DriveService.new
drive.authorization = auth
files = drive.list_files
files.items.each_with_index do |file, index|
url_to_index = file.export_links.select { |k, v| v if k == 'text/plain' }
file_content = open(url_to_index["text/plain"]).read
end
The problem is file_content is returning the Google login screen not the file in text/plain format. It appears that when my Rails app opens the URL it does not have access to the text file.
What's the right way to enable my Rails app to grab the file in the text format?
Stated in Download Files
Depending on the type of download you'd like to perform — a file, a Google Document, or a content link — you'll use one of the following URLs:
Download a file — files.get with alt=media file resource
Download and export a Google Doc — files.export
Link a user to a file — webContentLink from the file resource
Downloading the file requires the user to have at least read access. Additionally, your app must be authorized with a scope that allows reading of file content.
You may go through the documentation for more information and examples.
See the log output: Two factor autentifications need to you permit access from you app to your google drive account.
In log you will see needed info to do this: link and secret_key.
tail -f log/*.log
I just realize that mimetype for download is different from the file meta.
Please check this url for available mimetype : https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/integrate-open
for example mimeType : 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
'

I want to share files from MS OneDrive to a user via MS graph API. And user can view my shared file directly through the link. I have read the Document of Creating a sharing Link for a DriveItem and use this API to create a sharing link for my sharing files.
I wonder how to implement with MS graph API? Any suggestion and tips are welcome. Thanks
According to your description, I assume you want to get the share file by using MS Graph API.
Base on my test, We can create a shareLink for this this file.
Then we can use the following steps to get the file information by converting the shareLink.
Encoding the shareLink by using the following logic:
1)First, use base64 encode the URL.
2)Convert the base64 encoded result to unpadded base64url format by removing = characters from the end of the value, replacing / with _ and + with -.)
3)Append u! to be beginning of the string.
If you want access the shared files, you can use the following API:
GET /shares/{shareIdOrUrl}/driveItem
The shareIdOrUrl parameter is the result in step1.
This API will return all the information about the shared file.
As an example, to encode a URL in C#:
string sharingUrl = "https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=1231244193912!12&authKey=1201919!12921!1";
string base64Value = System.Convert.ToBase64String(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sharingUrl));
string encodedUrl = "u!" + base64Value.TrimEnd('=').Replace('/','_').Replace('+','-');
For more detail, we can refer to this document.
I'm trying to use the YouTube API to fetch video captions, but the example is incomplete: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/code_samples/python#create_and_manage_youtube_video_caption_tracks
Specifically, it has this comment + code:
# Trusted testers can download this discovery document from the developers page
# and it should be in the same directory with the code.
with open("youtube-v3-api-captions.json", "r") as f:
doc = f.read()
return build_from_document(doc, http=credentials.authorize(httplib2.Http()))
But it's not at all clear where the youtube-v3-api-captions.json file can be found.
Where can it be found?
It appears to be here: https://www.googleapis.com/discovery/v1/apis/youtube/v3/rest
Which was found by guessing the names "youtube" and "v3" on the Try It section of https://developers.google.com/discovery/v1/reference/apis/getRest
there is a "meta" discovery API that lists the APIs and includes links to their respective discovery docs: https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#search/discovery/discovery/v1/discovery.apis.list
We can get the share link for a dropbox folder from SDK(https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-ruby/blob/master/lib/dropbox_sdk.rb#L1222-L1225), which link is dl=0 by default, I need to set it with dl=1 so that it will download directly, I did some hack:
require 'dropbox_sdk';
client = DropboxClient.new(ENV['dropbox_access_token'])
session = DropboxOAuth2Session.new(Option['dropbox_access_token'], nil)
response = session.do_get "/shares/auto#{client.format_path('/auction_offerings/two')}", {"short_url" => false}
response = Dropbox::parse_response(response)
response["url"][-1]="1"
Then response["url"] will become the download link I want, but it is obvious not the right way to do that. Any better practice？
I created a configuration file (Simple Text File) on my Google Drive and now I would like to read it from my Chrome Packaged Dart Application. But I'm not able to get more information of the file than it's name, size etc.
For accessing Google Drive I use the google_drive_v2_api.
Any suggestion on how to get the contents of my configuration file would be great! Thanks!
I just did some test in my own chrome app, uploading and downloading a simple file:
chrome.identity.getAuthToken(new chrome.TokenDetails(interactive: true ))
.then((token){
OAuth2 auth = new SimpleOAuth2(token);
var drive = new gdrive.Drive(auth)..makeAuthRequests=true;
drive.files.insert({},content:window.btoa('hello drive!')).then((sentMeta){
print("File sent! Now retrieving...");
drive.files.get(sentMeta.id).then((repliedMeta){
HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest()..open('GET', repliedMeta.downloadUrl)
..onLoad.listen((r)=>print('here is the result:'+r.target.responseText));
auth.authenticate(request).then((oAuthReq)=>oAuthReq.send());
});
});
});
It works, but the HttpRequest to get content back seems heavy...
But i really recommend you to a take look to chrome.storage.sync if your config file size is < to 4ko... If not, you could also use the chrome SyncFileSystem API... They are both easier to use, and SyncFileSystem use Drive as backend.
This page on downloading files talks through the process for getting the contents of a file.
I'm working on a SharePoint mobile solution where I'm using the web services exposed in server/_vti_bin/sitedata.asmx, server/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx and server/_vti_bin/copy.asmx.
I'm able to successfully fetch the list of sites, document libraries and files using the services defined in server/_vti_bin/sitedata.asmx.
Now I'm actually trying to upload an image file from Photo Albums available in iOS to SharePoint. For this, I tried using CopyIntoItems web service, where in I'm getting the following error response.
<CopyResult ErrorCode="DestinationInvalid" ErrorMessage="The Copy web service method must be called on the same domain that contains the destination url." DestinationUrl="http://xxxxserveripxxxxxx/Shared Documents/image1.png"/>
But came to know that this service is used only if the file to be uploaded is also from the same source(i.e., from sharepoint).
Is there any other way to upload a file available in iPhone to SharePoint.
Also tired addAttachment service defiend in server/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx but I'm unable to identify the input parameters which requires list name and list Item ID.
I'm trying to upload a file to Shared Documents, so I've List Name value which is the one in curly braces of Shared Documents but now what should be the List Item Id value?
These are the details I've with regard to "Shared Documents" document library.
{
AllowAnonymousAccess = false;
AnonymousViewListItems = false;
BaseTemplate = DocumentLibrary;
BaseType = DocumentLibrary;
DefaultViewUrl = "/Shared Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx";
Description = "Share a document with the team by adding it to this document library.";
InheritedSecurity = true;
InternalName = "{425F837A-F110-4876-98DE-C92902446935}";
LastModified = "2013-07-26 20:09:58Z";
ReadSecurity = 1;
Title = "Shared Documents";
},
So, I'm using the using InternalName value for listName tag.
What should be the value of listItemID?
Am I going in the right way or is there any other approach to upload a local file from mobile to SharePoint?
Thanks

Are you actually calling a URL or are you using the IP (you x'ed it out and said server IP)? If you don't have Alternate Access Mappings defined for the IP, uploads will fail but the GET requests will generally work ok.
