In drive I have to create a folder and I have to upload file from my app to that folder and download a file from the folder to my device. I need the drive to upload and download files from my app.

So this solution is from limited resources available to me. Can anyone provide an up-to-date version of this guide? Thank you kindly.īefore answering this question I want you to know that I got the code from here ( ) and the documentation from Google was not much helpful for me. The guidelines posted by ArtOfWarfare here are absolutely perfect and exactly what I'm looking for - but are unfortunately out of date by several years. So I am asking if anyone would be willing to create such a guide, or can point to such a guide that has already been made that is a) relevant to the latest version of Google Drive API REST v3 detailed here and b) covers ALL above aspects that a beginner would need to be get started? This mainly stems from the fact that the official Google documentation is missing a proper quick start guide for Android and we are left with finding scraps of (outdated and/or confusing) information dotted around - but what is needed is a complete up to date guide aimed at beginners to get us up and running so that they can open and edit files on their Drive, including how to set up credentials, dependencies, and manifests.

Myself and many others have been struggling with setting up the Google Drive REST API v3 to work with Android apps.
