[Rails How to specify folders to which I upload files in google drive?

Question

I use gem google drive v.2.1.2, and I searched api from here.

According to this api, I can upload files by following code.

session.upload_from_file("/path/to/hoge.txt")

In this api, no way to specify a folder to which I can upload my files.

If you know the way to specify a foloder, please tell me.

you'll need to ask the author/community of the library that you're using — pinoyyid, Dec 18 '16 at 11:39

Here is the code from the Drive documentation that tells you on how to insert a file in a particular folder, specifying the correct ID in the parents property of the file.

folder_id = '0BwwA4oUTeiV1TGRPeTVjaWRDY1E'
file_metadata = {
name: 'photo.jpg',
parents: [folder_id]
}
file = drive_service.create_file(file_metadata,
fields: 'id',
upload_source: 'files/photo.jpg',
content_type: 'image/jpeg')
puts "File Id: #{file.id}"
