When running gam print transferapps, I am receiving the following:

transferParams: 
 value: 
  SHARED
  PRIVATE
 key: PRIVACY_LEVEL
id: 55656082996
name: Drive والمستندات

id: 553547912911
name: Google+

I am unable to process Google Drive transfers using gam create datatransfer empl...@example.com Drive man...@example.com.  I receive an error stating "ERROR: Drive is not a valid service for data transfer.".  Any ideas?

Jeffrey,

Google has messed up here or has been hacked. the name you see in print transferapps  should just be Drive.

Say this: gam create datatransfer empl...@example.com gdrive man...@example.com.
GAM will internally convert gdrive to the Drive ID.

Thanks, Ross. That's what I thought but I wanted to make sure it wasn't something on my end.  I will wait a bit and try again.

Jeffrey,

Did you try it with gdrive instead of Drive, that should work now.

Yes and this is what happened...

gam create datatransfer empl...@gfs.com gdrive man...@gfs.com
ERROR: 400: Invalid value for Long: Drive - invalid

Right, I forgot, it's a known 3.65 bug. Here is a fixed version: https://github.com/taers232c/GAM/releases/tag/v3.66

Hi Guys,

I'm on GAM 3.63 - This Drive transfer command worked like a charm before. Looks like it's no longer working.... do I need to jump to GAM 3.65?

gam create datatransfer old...@acme.com drive new...@acme.com privacy_level shared,private

ERROR: Drive is not a valid service for data transfer.

Thanks,
Ken

Kendrick,

Google seems to have been hacked; gam print transferapps

$ gam print transferapps

id: 55656082996

name: Drive والمستندات

transferParams:

  key: PRIVACY_LEVEL

    value:

      SHARED

      PRIVATE


id: 553547912911

name: Google+


You'll see that the Drive service name has been corrupted.
But, you're in luck, gam 3.63 accepts gdrive instead of drive and gets the id internally.
gam create datatransfer old...@acme.com gdrive new...@acme.com privacy_level shared,private

Thanks for the quick reply. Running the command with "gdrive" resulted in a different error.

ERROR: 400: Invalid value for Long: Drive - Invalid
