Give your users access to their files, wherever they are, on any device.
|

The Google Drive Android API makes it easier than ever to use Drive to
|
|||
|
|
store and sync user’s files between their mobile devices and the cloud.
|
|||
|
|
Simply use Drive like local file storage and the API will handle the
|
|||
|
|
syncing for you.

<p>
|

|
The Google Drive Android API uses the local device storage to create,
|
|||
|
|
edit, and open files, then syncs them automatically when the device
|
|||
|
|
is connected to the Internet. If a user requests a file that isn’t
|
|||
|
|
already cached on the device, the Drive service downloads the file
|
|||
|
|
the next time the device connects.<br>

|

|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Building your own user interface for selecting or creating files is a
|
|||
|
|
thing of the past. The Drive API includes activity builders for two
|
|||
|
|
of the most common user activities: opening files and creating
|
|||
|
|
files.<br>

</h4>
|

|
|
|

|

<p>
|
|||
|
|
The query builder allows you to easily construct a query by joining
|
|||
|
|
together multiple parameters and filtering based on metadata. This
|
|||
|
|
allows you to easily display only relevant files, such as files
|
|||
|
|
shared with the user or files with a specific MIME type.<br>

Getting Started
|
|||
|
|
</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>
|
|||
|
|
1. Get the Google Play services SDK
|
|||
|
|
</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The Google Drive Android API is part of the Google Play services
|
|||
|
|
platform.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
To get started, <a href=
|
|||
|
|
"{@docRoot}google/play-services/setup.html">set up the Google Play
|
|||
|
|
services SDK</a>.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>
|
|||
|
|
2. Run the sample
|
|||
|
|
</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Once you’ve set up the Google Play services SDK, you can run the
|
|||
|
|
Google Drive sample located in
|
|||
|
|
<code><android-sdk>/extras/google-play-services/samples/drive</code>.
|
|||
|
|
However, before you can run the sample, you need to register your app
|
|||
|
|
in the Google Developers Console.
|
|||
|
|
