使用 Drive API 将图像上传到 Google Drive

Question

I am trying to upload an image to the google drive using drive API. As the first step, I developed a code to upload a PDF file (file path is hard coded) to the google drive by following a tutorial.

1. PDF will be uploaded successfully but sometimes I get a time out message from the log. this may be because of my poor connection. But is there a proper way to handle this by the code when something like this happens?

2. Please guide me on how to upload an image instead of PDF by changing this code. I tried but I could not do it successfully. Please Help for this part. I am stuck here for two days

Answer 1

Set appropriate MIME type:

In order to upload a specific file type to Drive, you have to specify its MIME type on the media content. In your case, this is handled by FileContent :

FileContent mediaContent = new FileContent("application/pdf",file);

So you would have to replace application/pdf with the appropriate MIME type (see for example the supported MIME types in G Suite documents ). Possible MIME types for images include image/jpeg and image/png . For example, you could do this:

FileContent mediaContent = new FileContent("image/jpeg",file);

Note:

• I'm assuming that you do have an image on the provided filePath .

Reference:

• MIME types (IANA media types)
