Edit and View folders lost when adding new students

[Pau Córdoba-Dpt.Informàtica]

Hi! Doctus is a fantastic tool, and at school we use them in many elementary classes. But now it is making mistakes for us.  

When you add new students to an already created class, and make Update Rooster, the Class Edit and Class View folders disappear from the already created students, and become only in the new student's folder. Can you fix the problem?

Thanks!

Hello there! I'm a big fan of Doctopus, too! It's amazing! I absolutely love it! <3 :)

I ran into the same issue today with the Class Edit and Class View folders disappearing when adding new students.

I was wondering, if it's in connection with the "ERR: Failed to add merged file to folder due to Google error: API call to drive.files.patch failed with error: Increasing the number of parents is not allowed" error message I ran into today, when running autocrat.

/ Here's what I've found about it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64262997/update-a-file-with-google-drive-api-error-403

"The API has changed early this year (2020) when Google introduced shortcuts:

You can only add a parent for an item that doesn't already have one. This affects the children.insert (v2), files.update (v2 / v3) and parents.insert (v2) endpoints. You can use the new canAddMyDriveParent capability to check if an item currently has no parents and if the user has sufficient access to add a parent for the item.

This was announced in March but it's been implemented since September 30. "

I hope this helps with fixing this issue. Fingers crossed! <3 

And thank you! I am super grateful for Doctopus! <3 It's been such a great help! <3 

Kindest regards,

Rita
