I want to create a plain/text Mime Type file, using PHP and the Google-API for Google Drive on Google App Engine.
When I use:
'mimeType' => 'text/plain',
No content is written to the file.
If I use:
'mimeType' => 'application/octet-stream',
'uploadType' => 'media'
contents are added to the file.
This code from Google documentation:
Shows a line of code for the mimeType of 'text/plain'
'mimeType' => 'text/plain',
But, again, if I use that, no contents are added to the file. What are the settings for creating a plain text file and adding content?
My complete code is this:
<?php
/* You can NOT see the files created in a Service Account without doing some special stuff. You need to set some kind
of permissions, and then you can see the files in your SHARED WITH ME section of Google Drive
