Shared Drives

To work with Shared Drives, you need to have access to Google Drive Workspace, which is a paid service. An alternative would be to sign up for a 30-day free trial of Google Drive Essentials, which also has the Shared Drives capability.

To start your free Google Drive Essentials trial, sign up to Google Drive Essentials by providing your email address, and then verify your address.

You cannot upload files larger than 5MB via the API. Also, Google Drive does not display the size and extension of native files.
