Access that was added directly on the item will be preserved. All access inherited from those parents will be removed. You can use the canMoveItemWithinDrive capability to check if the user has access to move an item.Īn item’s owner will now be able to move their item into a new location, removing all of the item’s current parents, even if they don’t have access to those parents. This affects the files.update (v2 / v3) endpoint. If the requester cannot share an item, they should create a shortcut to it instead. Previously, only read access to the item was required. Moving an item will require access to share the item. This affects the files.insert (v2), files.create (v3) and py (v2 / v3) endpoints. You can use the new canAddMyDriveParent capability to check if an item currently has no parents and if the user has sufficient access to add a parent for the item.Ī request that creates a new item can no longer specify multiple parents. This affects the children.insert (v2), files.update (v2 / v3) and parents.insert (v2) endpoints. You can only add a parent for an item that doesn't already have one. The specific changes to the API’s behavior are: We will adaptively select the most suitable parent to keep, based on the hierarchy's properties. Any other parent-child relationships will become shortcuts in the former parent folders. 30, 2020, we will begin migrating all items in Drive to a one-parent state. If you choose to opt in ahead of time, the eventual enforcement will cause no further changes to your app’s behavior.Īfter Sept. To opt in to the new behavior, set its value to true on the requests you make to the Google Drive API. We have introduced a new enforceSingleParent request parameter on affected endpoints. This simplification of Drive's folder structure and sharing models will result in a change in the way some Google Drive API endpoints behave.ĭevelopers are now able to opt in to the new model to develop and test their apps. In the new model, shortcuts can be used to organize content in multiple hierarchies. 30, 2020, it will no longer be possible to place an item in multiple folders every item will have exactly one location. This will ensure your apps continue to work properly, and enable you to take advantage of the latest features in Drive.īeginning Sept. Shortcuts, which are now generally available, will also require those of you who build on the Google Drive API to plan for some upcoming changes. Shortcut files can be stored anywhere in Google Drive, including a shared drive or an individual user’s “My Drive.” These efforts have resulted in Drive shortcuts, which are files that act as pointers to other files in Google Drive. The G Suite team has been working hard to make it easier to organize and share content in Google Drive, and help direct users to relevant files across various drives.
