Team Drives

Team Drive top level folders are considered as root folders, so if you have more than one Team Drive, or if you want to access both My Drive and one or more Team Drives, you should create separate labels.

Create a new label, for example:

google-drive-ocamlfuse -label myTeamDrive

Authorize access to Google Drive. Now open a web browser, visit the Team Drive, and copy the Team Drive ID. You can get the ID by clicking on your Team Drive and copying the ID from the URL. It is the string after https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/. For example:

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/0XS2-_aJgHL29KfOVHAS22
                                           ^------- copy from here

Note: If you need to change the root folder/team drive without creating a new label, you can always remount with -cc.

Open the config file in ~/.gdfuse/<label>/config and look for the team_drive_id setting. Add the ID you just copied from above (e.g., team_drive_id=0XS2-_aJgHL29KfOVHAS22). Save the file.

Then, mount the drive with:

google-drive-ocamlfuse -label myTeamDrive /mountPoint

The team drive will be mounted there (instead of the usual My Drive).

If you still get the contents of My Drive instead of the team drive, try to clear the cache by adding the option -cc to the mount.

google-drive-ocamlfuse -cc -label myTeamDrive /mountPoint

Note: if you want to access the backups produced by Backup & sync that you can find under Computers, you should put the folder id of the computer you want to access in root_folder and leave team_drive_id blank.
