IOS: How to upload a file to specific Google drive folder using Google drive sdk library

google-drive-api, ios

Solution

You need to set the `parents` property of your `driveFile` reference.

GTLDriveParentReference *parentRef = [GTLDriveParentReference object];
parentRef.identifier = folderIdentifier; // identifier property of the folder
driveFile.parents = @[ parentRef ];

Problem

I integrated Google drive sdk with my iOS app. But I do not know how to upload a file to Google drive specific folder. Here the code am using to upload the file. But this one uploading the file to my google drive root folder. Any one share a code to upload a file to google drive specific folder?. My Code: ``` -(void)uploadFileToGoogleDrive:(NSString*)fileName { GTLDriveFile *driveFile = [[[GTLDriveFile alloc]init] autorelease]; driveFile.mimeType = @"application/pdf"; driveFile.originalFilename = @"test.doc"; driveFile.title = @"test.doc"; NSString *filePath = [LocalFilesDetails getUserDocumentFullPathForFileName:fileName isSignedDocument:YES]; GTLUploadParameters *uploadParameters = [GTLUploadParameters uploadParametersWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:filePath] MIMEType:@"application/pdf"]; GTLQueryDrive *query = [GTLQueryDrive queryForFilesInsertWithObject:driveFile uploadParameters:uploadParameters]; [self.driveService executeQuery:query completionHandler:^(GTLServiceTicket *ticket, GTLDriveFile *updatedFile, NSError *error) { if (error == nil) { NSLog(@"\n\nfile uploaded into google drive\\<my_folder> foler"); } else { NSLog(@"\n\nfile uplod failed google drive\\<my_folder> foler"); } }]; } ```
