Solution

  • You can use gdown if the file is shared publicly.

    !gdown 1cUaIEd9-MLJHFGjLz5QziNvfBtYygplX

    If it's shared to you only, you need to use pydrive

    # Install the PyDrive wrapper & import libraries.
from pydrive.auth import GoogleAuth
from pydrive.drive import GoogleDrive
from google.colab import auth
from oauth2client.client import GoogleCredentials

# Authenticate and create the PyDrive client.
auth.authenticate_user()
gauth = GoogleAuth()
gauth.credentials = GoogleCredentials.get_application_default()
drive = GoogleDrive(gauth)

file_id = '1cUaIEd9-MLJHFGjLz5QziNvfBtYygplX'
downloaded = drive.CreateFile({'id':file_id})
downloaded.FetchMetadata(fetch_all=True)
downloaded.GetContentFile(downloaded.metadata['title'])

    If they share a folder, it's too long so I made it short in my library.

    !pip install kora
from kora import drive
drive.download_folder('1HvIeNhqtFVllXFWzH5NawDdnIfgGDwCK')
