Google Drive Plugin Problems

Hello, I just purchased the google drive plugin and followed all the advise here in the forum and also in the sample file but I have two problems.

Although renaming, the uploaded file does not recognize the type of file.

When trying to preview the file, it shows a restricted permission error.

It is important to mention that if I login with the sample file you provide it get exactly the same results.

Please help

Thanks.

@audaxias Hello.

For upload action please try the “Upload a File (base64)” action:
55
See that it works for your case. Thanks.

I worked fine. Thanks for your help.

Is there a file size limit for upload? Is this a uploadType= media? When I try to upload 10 Mb files, the problem returns and the files are not recognized by google drive just like before.

Thanks

Hello, @audaxias

Yes, this is simple upload file for quick file transfer of small files 5MB or less.

Hello @audaxias

We pushed an update to Google Drive - Upload a File call to version 3. Check the latest version by upgrading plugin, try the action, refresh the app and give it a go.
