使用通过代码提供的用户名和密码访问Google Drive

Question

I want to pass Gmail id and password and get the access to users drive. I don't want to use accounts that can be chosen using intent(account picker) instead i will provide edit-text to enter and user name and password, with which I should be able to access google drive for that user name and password.

Any suggestion how to do this?

Answer 1

The only way to access google drive through an app is through the google drive API OAUTH system, it's well explained on their docs:

About OAUTH

About authorization protocols

Your application must use OAuth 2.0 to authorize requests. No other authorization protocols are supported. If your application uses Google Sign-In, some aspects of authorization are handled for you.
