File Picker using Google Apps Script and Javascript without 3rd party

[Tanaike]

This is a sample script for the file picker using Google Apps Script and Javascript without 3rd party.

I had created the same sample script before. But, in the case of that script, jQuery is used. And, only Google Drive of own account could be used. In this sample script, 3rd party of jQuery is not used, and also, not only Google Drive of your own account, but also Google Drive of the service account can be used. By this, I thought that this file picker will be useful for various scenes. I would be grateful if this was useful for your situation.

What Drive scope do you use? Full access?

[Tanaike]

At this sample script, the scopes of `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly` from the comment line of "// DriveApp.getFiles()" and `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/script.external_request` are used.

Also, this script works with the scopes of `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.metadata.readonly` and `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/script.external_request`.

Thank you. It provides an alternative to the Google Picker.

Thank you for replying. When Drive API at Advanced Google services, the script can be worked with only the scope of "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.metadata.readonly". But, in order to use the service account, I directly requested the endpoint using the access token. By this, the scope of "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/script.external_request" was added.
