Google Drive access for Service account

Question

I am trying to access my Google Drive files from a php script that will be run in a cron job, but I can\'t see my files. I am using a Service account set up in Google Develo

Answer 1

I made a shared folder in my GUI accessible drive, then I insert the files from the commandline under this folder shared, so I see them ;)

Answer 2

Google will create its own google drive for service account.

What you need to do is SHARE your folder with service's account email from console.

Give it permission "can edit".
