I use "Service account" method for using Google Drive API. I need to get an access to my storage through Web browser to make a folder structure and have an ability to change/remove/add files quickly without calling API commands. Is there an ability to login under xxx@developer.gserviceaccount.com account? Or are there any other ways?

Any help would be really appreciated!

    I have found a solution that works for me. I created a folder in my main Google account (that I use for Google Drive API access) and shared it with my API's email address - xxx@developer.gserviceaccount.com. Now I'm working with this folder through both a Web browser (from my Google account) and API requests and all changes are synced. Maybe it will help someone. – Victor Sharovatov Jun 25 '13 at 11:17

You may like to take a look at JWT JavaScript implementations such as jwt-js [1] to reimplement the service account auth flow [2].
