These terms define the key components shown in Figure 1:

Google Drive
Google's cloud file storage service that provides users with a personal storagespace, called My Drive, and the option to access collaborative sharedfolders, called shared drives.
Google Drive API
The REST API that allows you to leverage Google Drive storage from withinyour app.
Google Drive app
An app that leverages Google Drive as its storage solution.
Google Drive UI
Google's user interface that manages files stored on Google Drive. If your appis an editor-type app, such as a spreadsheet or word processor app, you canintegrate with the Drive UI to create and open files within your app.
My Drive

  • Let users share files, folders and drives to collaborate on content.
  • Combine with the Google Picker API to search all files in Google Drive, then return the file name, URL, last modified date, and user.
  • Create third-party shortcuts that are external links to data stored outside of Drive, in a different data store or cloud storage system.
  • Create a dedicated Drive folder to store your application's data so that the app cannot access all the user's content stored in Google Drive. See Store application-specific data.
  • Integrate with the Google Drive UI, which is Google's standard web UI you can use to interact with Drive files. To learn all that you can do with a Drive app that you integrate with the Google Drive UI, see Drive UI integration overview
