Hi @clawoflight, thanks. |
|
Hello again @RickCogley. Unfortunately |
|
I looked at the API docs, but, I cannot see anything specific about those two settings which are available in the GUI itself. @odeke-em |
|
Here's what's needed: https://developers.google.com/drive/v3/reference/permissions#resource-representations type: "anyone" It would be very usefull to add the "anyone with the link" feature |
|
Aha I finally now understand the problem. Thank you @thebaddie for rephrasing it and thank you @RickCogley for advocating it, I have been able to locally produce the expected output. PR coming shortly. |
Allow sharing of file with `anyone with link` without having to publish it to the internet. Publishing is different because after a file is published, it is indexed (See #568 (comment)). We don't want the file to be indexed, but just accessible by anyone with a link to it. ```shell $ drive share --type user,anyone,anyone,user --role reader,anyone --emails "[email protected]" outf.gif Provide access for accountType(s) user anyone For roles(s) reader Addressees: + [email protected] + Anyone with the link File(s) to share: + outf.gif Proceed with the changes? [Y/n]:y successful share for outf.gif with email "[email protected]", role "reader" accountType "user" successful share for outf.gif with email "", role "reader" accountType "anyone" ``` Fixes #568.

Hey folks. Thank you very much for the patience. I finally got time and thought about it. After re-reading the content in the issue I was able to discover how to solve it. The hints and discussions helped a lot. I learnt something about published files being indexed (which is not want the user wants) and also thanks for the reference to the documentation(we were using the same permissions anyways, but a refresher was good). Auto-closed by PR #648. Please get the latest from master $ go get -v -u github.com/odeke-em/drive/drive-gen && drive-genand then you can now do this $ drive share --type user,anyone,anyone,user --role reader,anyone --emails "[email protected]" outf.gif
Provide access for accountType(s)
user
anyone
For roles(s)
reader
Addressees:
+ [email protected]
+ Anyone with the link
File(s) to share:
+ outf.gif
Proceed with the changes? [Y/n]:y
successful share for outf.gif with email "[email protected]", role "reader" accountType "user"
successful share for outf.gif with email "", role "reader" accountType "anyone"Then get the URL of the file $ drive url outf.gifPlease reopen if it persists. |

Testing it right now but it still is public and indexed, |
Enables sharing to anyone with the link but the file won't be publicly indexed as is usually with files that are published publicly. ```shell $ drive share --with-link ComedyPunchlineDrumSound.mp3 ``` Fixes #568. Follows suggestions in #650 (comment).
Hi - how could I set "anyone with the link can view" permission like in the inline screenshot below? The
drive sharecommand seems to be email-centric. Please advise, thanks.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
