I have been using Google Drive files shared with "View Everybody with Links" to store images that are included in transactional emails (like header images, etc).
I get the links using the SDK, and my links look like: https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id={somefileId}.
This is basically the technique from Displaying files (e.g. images) stored in Google Drive on a website.
This works... most of the time.
Sometimes I get reports of users not being able to download the images. I cannot figure it out what is going on, but I believe it is that there is a limit on how many concurrent or maybe accumulative requests can be done on a given link and/or user account.
I am looking for documentation that confirms this. My specific question is: does anybody know the quota limits imposed by Google Drive? (if you have a link to official information it would be great).
Thanks.
