And the channel will expire at some point.Important: To move a file, you must have permission to move the file from the source to the destination, otherwise the file won't be moved. You get 'X-Goog-Resource-State': 'add' when you share with a userĪs you can see, the header tags are not accurate/unique.Īlso, note that the push-notification channel will not send you requests for files inside a folder inside yourfolder (yourfolder/folder/files). Which is the same when you move a file to yourfolder, or when you start following an existing file in your folder.
when I was using files().watch() I tested all the use-cases, and I compared the headers of each case.įor a new file (or folder) creation inside yourfolder (yourfolder/newfile) the headers contain: However the tags on the change type are not accurate. The 2nd case is less 'spamming', and you get to decide which folder to monitor. The 1st case sends you a request for everything that happens on the Drive you are monitoring, with very little information on what exactly has changed. Set Notification Push using : files().watch().Set Notification Push using : changes().watch().There are two things you can do to monitor changes on Google Drive : I was working on a similar project a few months ago. Regarding deleted files, I know can get it by watching the file once I have it, but is there a way I can get updated about new files in a certain folder? In reality, the "x-goog-changed" does contain "children", but the "x-goog-resource-state" is always "update", and there is no extra information about the added/deleted file.
When watching for file changes, in case of a folder, I want to know about new files added to that folder, so I expected that when adding/removing files from this folder, the "x-goog-resource-state" will hold "add/remove" value while "x-goog-changed" will contain "children".
But when I try to query it using: driveService.changes().get(changeId), I intermittently get 404. When watching for drive changes, I get notification with the new change id. I started playing with it, but I have 2 major problems: I'm considering using Google Drive push notification in order to replace our currently pulling process.
