using Google.Apis.Auth.OAuth2; using Google.Apis.Drive.v3; using Google.Apis.Services; namespace DriveV3Snippets { // Class to demonstrate use of Drive insert file API public class UploadBasic { /// /// Upload new file. /// /// Image path to upload. /// Inserted file metadata if successful, null otherwise. public static string DriveUploadBasic(string filePath) { try { /* Load pre-authorized user credentials from the environment. TODO(developer) - See https://developers.google.com/identity for guides on implementing OAuth2 for your application. */ GoogleCredential credential = GoogleCredential.GetApplicationDefault() .CreateScoped(DriveService.Scope.Drive); // Create Drive API service. var service = new DriveService(new BaseClientService.Initializer { HttpClientInitializer = credential, ApplicationName = "Drive API Snippets" }); // Upload file photo.jpg on drive. var fileMetadata = new Google.Apis.Drive.v3.Data.File() { Name = "photo.jpg" }; FilesResource.CreateMediaUpload request; // Create a new file on drive. using (var stream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Open)) { // Create a new file, with metadata and stream. request = service.Files.Create( fileMetadata, stream, "image/jpeg"); request.Fields = "id"; request.Upload(); } var file = request.ResponseBody; // Prints the uploaded file id. Console.WriteLine("File ID: " + file.Id); return file.Id; } catch (Exception e) { // TODO(developer) - handle error appropriately if (e is AggregateException) { Console.WriteLine("Credential Not found"); } else if (e is FileNotFoundException) { Console.WriteLine("File not found"); } else { throw; } } return null; } } } https://developers.google.com/drive/api/guides/manage-uploads#.net https://www.daimto.com/upload-file-to-google-drive/
