Answer 1

First, be aware of the security implications of embedding static credentials. As a minimum, use only drive.file scope, so the credentials only allow access to files created by the app.

The "static credential" you are referring to is a Refresh Token. You will use this to fetch an Access Token whenever your app needs to access GDrive. This answer How do I authorise an app (web or installed) without user intervention? (canonical ?) describes the detailed steps to follow.

You should also consider using a Service Account instead of a regular account for the app's storage.
