I was trying to download file from my google drive to colaboratory.

file_id = \'1uBtlaggVyWshwcyP6kEI-y_W3P8D26sz\'

import io
from googleapiclient.http import M         


        

Answer 1

No installing/importing any library. Just put your file id at the end.

!gdown --id yourFileIdHere

Note: at the time of writing gdown library is preinstalled on colab.
