Scopes

You will need authorization for at least one of the following scopes to make a valid call:

• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive. You can set the scope for this method like this: drive2 --scope <scope> comments update ...

Required Scalar Arguments

• <file-id> (string)
  • The ID of the file.
• <comment-id> (string)
  • The ID of the comment.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

Comment:
  anchor: string
  author:
    display-name: string
    email-address: string
    is-authenticated-user: boolean
    kind: string
    permission-id: string
    picture:
      url: string
  comment-id: string
  content: string
  context:
    type: string
    value: string
  created-date: string
  deleted: boolean
  file-id: string
  file-title: string
  html-content: string
  kind: string
  modified-date: string
  self-link: string
  status: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

• The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
• The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
• You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
• You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

• -o out
  • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.
