## Accessing Google Drive from NiFi

This processor uses Google Cloud credentials for authentication to access Google Drive. The following steps are required
to prepare the Google Cloud and Google Drive accounts for the processors:

1. **Enable Google Drive API in Google Cloud**
    * Follow instructions
      at [https://developers.google.com/workspace/guides/enable-apis](https://developers.google.com/workspace/guides/enable-apis)
      and search for 'Google Drive API'.
2. **Grant access to Google Drive folder**
    * In Google Cloud Console navigate to IAM & Admin -> Service Accounts.
    * Take a note of the email of the service account you are going to use.
    * Navigate to the folder in Google Drive which will be used as the base folder.
    * Right-click on the Folder -> Share.
    * Enter the service account email.
3. **Find Folder ID**
    * Navigate to the folder to be listed in Google Drive and enter it. The URL in your browser will include the ID at
      the end of the URL. For example, if the URL were
      `https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1trTraPVCnX5_TNwO8d9P_bz278xWOmGm`, the Folder ID would be
      `1trTraPVCnX5_TNwO8d9P_bz278xWOmGm`
4. **Set Folder ID in 'Folder ID' property**
