On Windows, an easy way to read this metadata from the command line is by using the 'type' command. - Not sure if this actually a valid identifier (as it does not work on Windows), but since I found it in close proximity to the others, and it may be relevant to your platform, I thought I would provide it just in case.- Provides nearly all of the metadata attached to the file, including the output of nearly all of these other identifiers.- As far as I can tell, this simply returns the email address of the Google account that Drive File Stream is signed into (I tried calling this on a file that is owned by another Google account, but it still returned my email address).- Returns '1' if the file is a 'Google Docs' document or '0' if it is not._drive_id - Drive API 'Team Drive ID' of the file/folder (empty if not in a Team Drive).- Drive API 'File ID' of the file/folder.These are the identifiers I've discovered so far (including descriptions for some of them): This metadata can be accessed by calling 'ReadFile' on any file/folder path that is suffixed with a colon followed by a special identifier describing the metadata one wants to retrieve. Regardless, the Drive File Stream driver adds a mechanism for reading special metadata attached to file/folder's located within its file system. Perhaps Google's file system driver is simply emulating the behavior of NTFS alternate data streams. The thing is, the properties of Drive File Stream's virtual drive show it as being partitioned as FAT32 which do not support alternate data streams. I do not know exactly what mechanism allows for the functionality described below, but it is nearly identical in function to the way NTFS alternate data streams work. Although I found this functionality on a Windows system, there may be similar functionality on Mac OS X. Save_response_content(response, destination)įor key, value in ():ĭef save_response_content(response, destination):įor chunk in response.I recently discovered a much more efficient way of retrieving the Drive API 'File ID' of any given file/folder located within your Google Drive File Stream file system. Response = session.get(URL, params = params, stream = True) If by "drive's url" you mean the shareable link of a file on Google Drive, then the following might help: import requestsĭef download_file_from_google_drive(id, destination):
