googledrive (version 0.1.2)

drive_auth_config: View or set auth config

Description

This function gives advanced users more control over auth. Whereas drive_auth() gives control over tokens, drive_auth_config() gives control of:

  • The googledrive auth state. The default is active, meaning all requests are sent with a token and, if one is not already loaded, OAuth flow is initiated. It is possible, however, to place unauthorized requests to the Drive API, as long as you are accessing public resources. Set active to FALSE to enter this state and never send a token.

  • The OAuth app. If you want to use your own app, setup a new project in Google Developers Console. Follow the instructions in OAuth 2.0 for Mobile & Desktop Apps to obtain your own client ID and secret. Provide these to httr::oauth_app().

  • The API key. If googledrive auth is deactivated (see above), all requests will be sent with an API key. If you want to provide your own, setup a project as described above and follow the instructions in Setting up API keys.
