Query for list of files and folders in root directory

Question

I would like to get a list of files and folders in the root directory without having to sort through all the files. Is there a query that would do this?

Answer 1

This code will display all files and folder of your ROOT DIRECTORY. just copy and paste this code and you will get all your root's file and folder.

 List result = new ArrayList();
    Files.List request = null;

    try {
          request = mService.files().list();
          FileList files = request.setQ("'root' in parents and trashed=false").execute();
          result.addAll(files.getItems());          
          request.setPageToken(files.getNextPageToken());
        } 
      catch (IOException e)
      {
        System.out.println("An error occurred: " + e);
        request.setPageToken(null);
      }

 //Print out all the files and folder of root Directory  
  for(File f:result)
  {
      System.out.println("recvd data are: "+f.getTitle());
  }
