It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

In your Google Cloud Console, make sure you have all the Google Drive scopes listed here:

If you don’t, add them manually.

You said this is a shared drive. Did you create the credentials in the same account as the owner of the drive?

I think credentials only work for the data you own

Hey @mredodos,

Maybe you’re gonna have to create an HTTP Request node for this one.
I’ve found some useful information:

To manage files in a shared drive using the Google Drive API, you can utilize various endpoints, such as files.list, files.get, files.create, files.update, and files.delete.

But when interacting with shared drives, it’s essential to include the parameters supportsAllDrives=true and includeItemsFromAllDrives=true in your requests to ensure proper handling of shared drive content.

Additionally, when listing files within a specific shared drive, set the corpora parameter to drive and provide the driveId of the shared drive.

For example, to list files in a shared drive, your request might look like:

GET https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files?q='[FOLDER_ID]' in parents&corpora=drive&driveId=[DRIVE_ID]&includeItemsFromAllDrives=true&supportsAllDrives=true

Replace [FOLDER_ID] with the ID of the folder you’re interested in and [DRIVE_ID] with the ID of the shared drive.

For more detailed information, refer to the Google Drive API documentation on managing shared drives.

Have you read my last reply? I think you may find what you are looking for.

But you are going to need to use an HTTP node and build a custom request for the Google API

i know how to work aroud…

I see. I didn’t know this was a bug report. I thought you wanted to access your shared drive.

Ok, then.

YES it’s a definitely a BUG

Docs Node not supported Shared drives

please maybe @mariana-na helps register a bug to resolve
BUG - Google Docs 2.5 not supported shared drives boolean Query Parameters - supportsAllDrives=true&supportsTeamDrives=true to activate fetch files from the shared drives.
Ahat need to add - Please add two oprions in node
supportsAllDrives=true/false
supportsTeamDrives=true/false

My workaround now:

I spent a few hours working with the documentation and working with the script, here is the bottom line two nodes that perform a function.

  1. Creates a file on Shared Drive in Google Docs format
  2. Adds basic text to the file
