Google Drive as a file server

[peacemaker]

Any solution for b4a ?
Basing maybe on APIs - google-api-java-client - Libraries and samples - Google APIs Client Library for Java - Google Project Hosting

Yeah, a Google Drive B4A lib would be very very useful for me too :sign0060:

What do you want to do with GoogleDrive?
Currently the API is rather limited and you cannot use it as a cloud storage engine. The SDK is released just for Web Apps. You may use the REST API but still apps are granted permissions on file level.

https://developers.google.com/drive/v1/reference/

You are probably better off using the Documents List API.

The just released Google Drive sdk v2 supposedly now fully supports Android and is the preferred way to access Google storage rather than the Google Documents List API.
A B4A lib using this SDK would be VERY useful.

Fixed path to the file is not applicable ?
That application directly might be using it as a server DB.
