Google Drive

Post by LeoTeo » Sun Aug 13, 2017 10:32 am

Hi everyone,

I am trying some softwares to get some work done on Google Drive.
MacroSheduler seems to be good for my purpose, but ....

Could someone please help me with a code to upload files to google drive?

I tried different options/codes, but when it gets to the part of selecting the file to upload, it doesn't work. I am stuck on the popup window for the file selection.


Thanks in advance.

Can't you just install Google Drive and then just use CopyFile and let it sync?

Or I guess there's an API. So you shouldn't need to be manipulating a web browser.

Hi Marcus,

Thanks for your reply.

The Google Drive app is a bit buggy. It usually uploads the files twice.

Also, in my tests Google Chrome uploads the files faster than the Google Drive app.

I specifically need the code for the popup window asking to to select the file I want to upload
