HI - I am having trouble getting the google drive loader working. I configured the component with the .Json file as well as document ID but I am receiving this error

"error building component google drive loadeR: authroier user info was not in the exected format, missing fields clients_secret, refresh_token, client_id.

The .Json file text does included clients_secret and client_id. Nothing in the docs explain how to troubleshoot.

Hello, @mbabeker5! I'm here to help you with your Google Drive API error. Let's figure this out together!

The error message indicates that the JSON string provided for the Google Drive Loader component is missing required fields: client_secret, refresh_token, and client_id. These fields are essential for OAuth 2.0 access token information.

Ensure that your JSON string includes these fields. Here is an example of what the JSON string should look like:

{
  "client_id": "your-client-id",
  "client_secret": "your-client-secret",
  "refresh_token": "your-refresh-token",
  "type": "authorized_user"
}

Make sure to replace "your-client-id", "your-client-secret", and "your-refresh-token" with the actual values from your Google Cloud service account.

If you are still encountering issues, double-check that the JSON string is correctly formatted and contains all necessary fields. For more details on creating a service account JSON, refer to the Service Account JSON documentation ^[1][2].

the json string i downloaded from my google account doesnt seem to have refresh_token or type. What could I be doing wrong?

It looks like the JSON string you downloaded might be for a service account, which typically doesn't include refresh_token or type. Instead, you need to create OAuth 2.0 credentials for a web application to get these fields.

Here are the steps to generate the required JSON string with client_id, client_secret, and refresh_token:

1. Create a Google Cloud Project:

   • Go to the Google Cloud Console.
   • Create a new project or select an existing project.

2. Enable the Google Drive API:

   • In the Google Cloud Console, go to the API & Services Dashboard.
   • Click on "Enable APIs and Services".
   • Search for "Google Drive API" and enable it.

3. Create OAuth 2.0 Credentials:

   • In the API & Services Dashboard, go to "Credentials".
   • Click on "Create Credentials" and select "OAuth 2.0 Client IDs".
   • Configure the consent screen if prompted.
   • Set the application type to "Web application" and configure the redirect URIs as needed.
   • After creating, you will get a client_id and client_secret.

4. Obtain the Refresh Token:

   • Use a tool like OAuth 2.0 Playground to obtain the refresh_token.
   • In the OAuth 2.0 Playground, configure it to use your client_id and client_secret.
   • Authorize the Google Drive API and exchange the authorization code for tokens.
   • Copy the refresh_token.

5. Create the JSON String:

   • Combine the client_id, client_secret, and refresh_token into a JSON string.

Here is an example of the JSON string format:

{
  "client_id": "your-client-id",
  "client_secret": "your-client-secret",
  "refresh_token": "your-refresh-token",
  "type": "authorized_user"
}

Replace your-client-id, your-client-secret, and your-refresh-token with the actual values obtained from the steps above ^[1].
