Downloaded Spreadsheet is empty #11

Hello,

I run the DownloadExample.vi with no errors>>

But the final downloaded file is empty, while if I download manually, the file has all the data>>

The only difference I can see is the file extension. Editing the MIMEtoExtension.txt file to force it to be xlsx did not help.

Anyone any ideas??

Hi @navas87. Did you have any luck solving this issue?

For someone else who happens to stumble acrros this. The issue seems to be a change in the API. Files (images, videos, etc) are meant to be downloaded, while google documents (docs, sheets, etc) are meant to be exported. Conquently replace the Get(String fileId) method with Export(String fileId, String mimeType). For mimeType refer to https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/ref-export-formats.
