Folder ID

 

Folder ID is optional. If you do not specify it, files will be uploaded to the root folder.

 

To find the folder id proceed to that folder in Google Drive in your web browser. The URL may look like this:

 

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/3/folders/0B-9X707clcqJMmI4OTI4MWEtMDBmNS00OGIwLThiZmYtOWJhMDdiNTc3ZmU3?resourcekey=0-z0sQH4Jjn_-nLn64zuPDvg

 

Here 0B-9X707clcqJMmI4OTI4MWEtMDBmNS00OGIwLThiZmYtOWJhMDdiNTc3ZmU3 is your folder id.

Important note

After the project is built and published, open it in the web browser and proceed to any page of a table where cloud storage is used. You will be redirected to Google's site to log in.Log in under the account that should be used to store the files. Then the application will save the credentials, and no further login will be needed.

 

The credentials are saved in \templates_c\googledrive.php file. If you need to change the GoogleDrive configuration and start storing files under a different account, delete that file, then close all browser windows to clear the session. Open any page where cloud storage is used in the browser again and log in to Google using your new account.
