Query past activity in Google Drive.

Scopes

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

  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.activity
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.activity.readonly

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.activity. You can set the scope for this method like this: driveactivity2 --scope <scope> activity query ...

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:

QueryDriveActivityRequest:
  ancestor-name: string
  filter: string
  item-name: string
  page-size: integer
  page-token: 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 . ancestor-name=et
    • Return activities for this Drive folder, plus all children and descendants. The format is items/ITEM_ID.
  • filter=magna
    • The filtering for items returned from this query request. The format of the filter string is a sequence of expressions, joined by an optional "AND", where each expression is of the form "field operator value". Supported fields: - time: Uses numerical operators on date values either in terms of milliseconds since Jan 1, 1970 or in RFC 3339 format. Examples: - time &gt; 1452409200000 AND time &lt;= 1492812924310 - time &gt;= &#34;2016-01-10T01:02:03-05:00&#34; - detail.action_detail_case: Uses the "has" operator (:) and either a singular value or a list of allowed action types enclosed in parentheses, separated by a space. To exclude a result from the response, prepend a hyphen (-) to the beginning of the filter string. Examples: - detail.action_detail_case:RENAME - detail.action_detail_case:(CREATE RESTORE) - -detail.action_detail_case:MOVE
  • item-name=no
    • Return activities for this Drive item. The format is items/ITEM_ID.
  • page-size=46
    • The minimum number of activities desired in the response; the server attempts to return at least this quantity. The server may also return fewer activities if it has a partial response ready before the request times out. If not set, a default value is used.
  • page-token=voluptua.
    • The token identifies which page of results to return. Set this to the next_page_token value returned from a previous query to obtain the following page of results. If not set, the first page of results is returned.

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 General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.

  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.

  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.

  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP

  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.

  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.

  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

  • -p quota-user=string

    • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.

  • -p upload-type=string

    • Legacy upload protocol for media (e.g. "media", "multipart").
