Updates the metadata for a shared drive.

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive scope to make a valid call.

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> drives update ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <drive-id> (string)
    • The ID of the shared drive.

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:

Drive:
  background-image-file:
    id: string
    width: number
    x-coordinate: number
    y-coordinate: number
  background-image-link: string

    sharing-folders-requires-organizer-permission: boolean
  theme-id: 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.

  • -r .background-image-file id=et
    • The ID of an image file in Google Drive to use for the background image.
  • width=0.19152174246409814
    • The width of the cropped image in the closed range of 0 to 1. This value represents the width of the cropped image divided by the width of the entire image. The height is computed by applying a width to height aspect ratio of 80 to 9. The resulting image must be at least 1280 pixels wide and 144 pixels high.

  • y-coordinate=0.6131721394478933

    • The Y coordinate of the upper left corner of the cropping area in the background image. This is a value in the closed range of 0 to 1.

This is a write-only field; it can only be set on requests that don't set colorRgb or backgroundImageFile.

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.

Optional Method Properties

You may set the following properties to further configure the call. Please note that -p is followed by one or more key-value-pairs, and is called like this -p k1=v1 k2=v2 even though the listing below repeats the -p for completeness.

  • -p use-domain-admin-access=boolean
    • Issue the request as a domain administrator; if set to true, then the requester will be granted access if they are an administrator of the domain to which the shared drive belongs.
