I\'m trying to get the thumbnail of a file but am getting an error 404, the url that return drive is like this in some files

I ran into the same issue.
You should append access token to the thumbnailLink URL, which will authorize your GET request for it.
So something like:
var thumbLink = driveEntry["thumbnailLink"] + "&access_token=" + YOURTOKEN;
Cheers.
