Using curl to download files from Google Drive? #80

Has anyone ever used curl to get files from a Google Drive folder?

I tried to create an open, sharable link through GD and then use that url, but I only succeeded in getting the html page as you can see here. Has anyone tried this?

The GDrive command has been really helpful, thanks!

using authorization token YYYY from developer page and file id XXXX in below command worked for me

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YYYYY" https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/XXXXX?alt=media -o output_file_name
