Google Drive API - Does the API automatically create a folder for our Application.

[Michael Joyner]

Hi out there.

We our building our product for Google Drive and I wanted to know if the Google Drive API automatically creates a App Folder like Dropbox does.

I know some other Applications that I have like "draw.io" I can see that they create App Folders, or at least I think they do. I know with Dropbox that after OAuth Dropbox automatically will create a Application folder if one does not exist.

Yes it does, see Storing Application Data, as well as Authorizing requests with OAuth 2.0 for details on the scopes required to access application data in Drive.
