Can I use sdk on google drive with authentication information from google login sdk for iOS?

We already have a login module that uses login to log into google. Once logged in, Google Sign-In provides the GIDAuthentication object .

Now I want to get access to Google Google Drive using gdvdddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddbdddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddbddddddddddddddbdddddddddddd Can I use GIDAuthentication

to create the disc GTMOAuth2Authentication sdk?

Manually assigning a value accessToken

does not seem to work (drive area added).

Yes, you can!

Use the following steps:



  • Follow all the steps to add Google SignIn as described in: https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/ios/start-integrating . Make sure you have enabled the Google Drive API for your project.

  • Remember to add the Google Drive API scope when initializing the login object:

    func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
    // Initialize sign-in
    var configureError: NSError?
    GGLContext.sharedInstance().configureWithError(&configureError)
    assert(configureError == nil, "Error configuring Google services: \(configureError)")

    GIDSignIn.sharedInstance().delegate = self

    // Use here whatever auth scope you wish (e.g., kGTLAuthScopeDriveReadonly, 
    // kGTLAuthScopeDriveMetadata, etc..)
    // You can obviously append more scopes to allow access to more services,
    // other than Google Drive.
    GIDSignIn.sharedInstance().scopes.append(kGTLAuthScopeDrive)

    return true
}

  • In your AppDelegate

    (or other accessible location) add:

    var myAuth: GTMFetcherAuthorizationProtocol? = nil

  • In the signIn

    delegate function (assuming it's also set to AppDelegate

    ), add the following code:

    func signIn(signIn: GIDSignIn!, didSignInForUser user: GIDGoogleUser!, withError error: NSError!) {
    if (error == nil) {
        // Logged into google services successfully! 
        // Save relevant details from user.authentication to refresh the token when needed.      

        // Set GTMOAuth2Authentication authoriser for your Google Drive service
        myAuth = user.authentication.fetcherAuthorizer()
    } else {
        // Error signing into Google services
    }
}

  • Finally, wherever you install your GoogleServiceDrive, you can also set its authorizer by simply setting:

    let service = GTLServiceDrive()
service.authorizer = (UIApplication.sharedApplication().delegate as! AppDelegate).myAuth

  • Now you can use google example code

    if let authorizer = service.authorizer, canAuth = authorizer.canAuthorize where canAuth {
    // service is authorised and can be used for queries
} else {
    // service is not authorised 
}
