I was playing with Java Script Google Drive API and was able to successfully fetch my google drive content via API.
Now lets say i have certain files in certain folders and on logging in to my App by other users, they can access these files in my drive. Is this possible with current Google Drive API where users can log-in to my APP and access my files in my google drive.
Here is the code for fetching files from google drive:

<button id="authorize-button" style="display: none;">Authorize</button>
<button id="signout-button" style="display: none;">Sign Out</button>
<pre id="content"></pre>

// Handle the initial sign-in state.
updateSigninStatus(gapi.auth2.getAuthInstance().isSignedIn.get());
authorizeButton.onclick = handleAuthClick;
signoutButton.onclick = handleSignoutClick;
});

var files = response.result.files;
