Google drive on Ubuntu

Configure apt repository:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alessandro-strada/ppa
sudo apt update

Install ocamlfuse

sudo apt install google-drive-ocamlfuse

Launch ocamlfuse to configure the authentication tokens

google-drive-ocamlfuse

Configure root_folder in subl ~/.gdfuse/default/config . It should be folder id that you can get from the web interface (it’s the id in the url after https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/). Remember remount with -cc after you change the root folder.

root_folder=the id

Create mount folder and execute the mount command:

mkdir ~/.gdfuse/folders
google-drive-ocamlfuse -cc ~/.gdfuse/folders

When done/tired of google drive, execute:

umount ~/.gdfuse/folders

For automount, please follow the instructions from here: https://blog.ciprianpascu.ro/2023/03/28/google-drive-on-ubuntu-automount/
