python-google-drive-api

Python script to recursively list all files from a target folder in Google Drive.

Install dependencies:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

To run the script, you need to enable access to the Google Drive API and download the access credentials.

Access this link and authenticate with the desired account.

Google will give you the option to download in a JSON file.

After that, move the file to the project folder and rename it to credentials.json.

Another important point: it's necessary to provide the ID of a folder that will be used as a starting point to recover the files.

This ID must be placed in the variable ROOT_FOLDER_TO_SEARCH.

Run the script:

$ python main.py

At the end of the execution, the script will create a file with the list of all folders and another file with the list of all files.
