of the file.
Operator – Test that is performed on the data to provide a match, e.g. contains
.
Value – The content of the attribute that is tested, e.g. the name of the file My cool document
.
Combine clauses with the conjunctions and
or or
, and negate the query with not
.
Term | Valid operators | Usage |
---|---|---|
name |
contains 1, = , != |
Name of the file. Surround with single quotes ' . Escape single quotes in queries with \' , e.g., 'Valentine\'s Day' . |
fullText |
contains 2 3 |
Full text of the file including name, description, content, and indexable text. Whether the ‘title’, ‘description’, or ‘indexableText‘ properties, or the content of the file matches. Surround with single quotes ' . Escape single quotes in queries with \' , e.g., 'Valentine\'s Day' . |
mimeType |
contains , = , != |
MIME type of the file. Surround with single quotes ' . Escape single quotes in queries with \' , e.g., 'Valentine\'s Day' . |
modifiedTime |
<= , < , = , != , > , >= |
Date of the last modification of the file. RFC 3339 format, default timezone is UTC, e.g., 2012-06-04T12:00:00-08:00 . Fields of type date are not currently comparable to each other, only to constant dates. |
viewedByMeTime |
<= , < , = , != , > , >= |
Date that the user last viewed a file. RFC 3339 format, default timezone is UTC, e.g., 2012-06-04T12:00:00-08:00 . Fields of type date are not currently comparable to each other, only to constant dates. |
trashed |
= , != |
Whether the file is in the trash or not. Can be either true or false . |
starred |
= , != |
Whether the file is starred or not. Can be either true or false . |
parents |
in |
Whether the parents collection contains the specified ID. |
owners 4 |
in |
Users who own the file. |
writers 4 |
in |
Users or groups who have permission to modify the file. See Permissions resource reference. |
readers 4 |
in |
Users or groups who have permission to read the file. See Permissions resource reference. |
sharedWithMe |
= , != |
Files that are in the user’s “Shared with me” collection. All file users are in the file’s access control list (ACL). Can be either true or false . |
properties |
has |
Public custom file properties. |
appProperties |
has |
Private custom file properties. |
visibility |
= , ‘!=’ |
The visibility level of the file. Valid values are anyoneCanFind, anyoneWithLink, domainCanFind, domainWithLink, and limited. Surround with single quotes ' . Escape single quotes in queries with \' , e.g., 'Valentine\'s Day' . |
[1] The contains
operator only performs prefix matching for a name
. For example, the name “HelloWorld” would match for name contains 'Hello'
but not name contains 'World'
.
[2] The contains
operator only performs matching on entire string tokens for fullText
. For example, if the full text of a doc contains the string “HelloWorld” only the query fullText contains 'HelloWorld'
returns a result. Queries such as fullText contains 'Hello'
do not return results in this scenario.
[3] The contains
operator matches on an exact alphanumeric phrase if it is surrounded by double quotes. For example, if the fullText
of a doc contains the string “Hello there world”, then the query fullText contains '"Hello there"'
returns a result, but the query fullText contains '"Hello world"'
doesn’t. Furthermore, since the search is alphanumeric, if the fullText
of a doc contains the string “Hello_world”, then the query fullText contains '"Hello world"'
returns a result.
[4] The owners
, writers
and readers
properties are indirectly reflected in the list and refer to the role on the permission.
Value Type | Notes |

For compound clauses, you can use parentheses to group clauses together. For example:
modifiedTime > '2019-06-04T12:00:00' and (mimeType contains 'image/' or mimeType contains 'video/')
This search returns all files with an image or video MIME type that their last modification was after June 4, 2019. Because and
and or
operators are evaluated from left to right, without parentheses, the above example would return only images modified after June 4, 2019, but would return all videos, even those before June 4, 2019.
Files with the name “hello” | name = 'hello' |
Files with a name containing the words “hello” and “goodbye” | name contains 'hello' and name contains 'goodbye' |
Files with a name that does not contain the word “hello” | not name contains 'hello' |
Folders that are Google apps or have the folder MIME type | mimeType = 'application/ vnd. google-apps. folder' |
Files that are not folders | mimeType != 'application/ vnd. google-apps. folder' |
Files that contain the text “important” and in the trash | fullText contains 'important' and trashed = true |
Files that contain the word “hello” | fullText contains 'hello' |
Files that do not have the word “hello” | not fullText contains 'hello' |
Files that contain the exact phrase “hello world” | fullText contains '"hello world"' |
Files with a query that contains the “” character (e.g., “\authors”) | fullText contains '\\authors' |
Files with ID within a collection, e.g. parents collection |
'1234567' in parents |
Files in an Application data folder in a collection | 'appDataFolder' in parents |
Files for which user “test@example.org” has write permission | 'test@example. org' in writers |
Files for which members of the group “group@example.org” have write permission | 'group@example. org' in writers |
Files modified after a given date | modifiedTime > '2012-06-04T12:00:00' / / default time zone is UTC |
Files shared with the authorized user with “hello” in the name | sharedWithMe and name contains 'hello' |
Files that have not been shared with anyone or domains (only private, or shared with specific users or groups) | visibility = 'limited' |
Image or video files modified after a specific date | modifiedTime > '2012-06-04T12:00:00' and (mimeType contains 'image/ ' or mimeType contains 'video/ ') |

There are several situations when uploading or updating a file fails:
- The uploaded file is too big and exceeds the maximum file size limit allowed for your Google Drive plan or you have exceeded your Google Drive storage limit. You can either upgrade your storage plan or delete existing files from the Google Drive service.
The selected folder where the file was to be uploaded to no longer exists. The scenario stops and it is then necessary to select a target folder again.
Your connection has expired and is no longer valid. You need to reauthorize the connection.
This error affects non-Gsuite Google accounts. For more details please refer to the Google OAuth documentation.
Solution
Note | |
---|---|
Our tests have shown that it is currently possible to set your Publishing Status to In Production to avoid this weekly re-authentication.
In the Google Console click API & Services > OAuth consent screen. Under Publishing status, click Publish App and then Confirm. |
Reauthorize your Google connection.
1. Log in to Boost.space Integrator.
2. Navigate to Connections.
3. Find your Google connection and click Reauthorize button.
To prevent the expiration of your Google connection, we suggest you to reauthorize the connection every week or update the project publishing status according to the information below.
Publishing statuses | |

Testing: If you keep your project in the Testing status, you will be required to reauthorize your connection in Boost.space Integrator every week. To avoid weekly reauthorization, update the project status to In production.
In production: If you update your project to the In production status, you will not be required to reauthorize the connection weekly. To update your project’s status, go to the OAuth consent screen and click Publish app. If you see the notice Needs verification, you can choose whether to go through the Google verification process for the app or to connect to your unverified app. Currently connecting to unverified apps works in Boost.space Integrator, but we cannot guarantee the Google will allow connections to unverified apps for an indefinite period. For more information regarding publishing statuses, refer to the Publishing status section of Google’s Setting up your OAuth consent screen help. |
