How to write to a public folder created and maintained by a master account. All the clients(android-device) must be able to write to that public folder of google drive ?

  • Show the code you tried. Otherwise its too broad. – Zig Mandel Mar 17 '15 at 14:02

    Can you also explain what you are trying to achieve? Without further deals, it sounds like you are heading towards pain with this model. We can potentially help avoid that pain by suggesting better models to achieve your goal. – Dan McGrath Mar 17 '15 at 16:22
  • @DanMcGrath I m trying to create a collective photos app . the app will take pictures and write those pictures to a single google drive account . That google drive account will be owned and maintained by me – user1462684 Mar 18 '15 at 05:59

    Drive (and integrations with it) are about user-owned content. What you describe appears to be for data not owned by the app user, so using a 'master' account in such a manner is not encouraged. You will run into quota limits for a single 'user' (or master/service account) if your app is successful that will cause issues so I encourage you to look for a different way. – Dan McGrath Mar 18 '15 at 11:48
  • @DanMcGrath sure i ll think about it – user1462684 Mar 19 '15 at 10:35
  • I had a similar idea about using one central folder, but @DanMcGrath, I think I see what you're saying about quota limits. In my case, it's only a handful of users, though.
