OAuth 2.0 Playground and Google Drive API
Blog post from Google Cloud
In June 2012, Nicolas Garnier from Google's Developer Relations announced enhancements to the OAuth 2.0 Playground, a tool designed for experimenting with the OAuth 2.0 protocol, particularly focusing on the newly launched Google Drive API. The updates allow users to test the Drive API by integrating the Playground as a Drive app, enabling users to open and access Google Drive files directly from the Drive interface. This integration allows the Playground to initiate OAuth flows to fetch file metadata, and users can also upload files using a multipart request, facilitating the creation of new files on Drive with a single API request. These enhancements aim to assist developers in building Drive-enabled web applications, and Garnier encourages developers to engage with the team via Stack Overflow and Google Groups for any inquiries.
