Search For Files

In the module Search for Files/Folders you can use your own query which consists of these parts:

Field – Attribute of the file that is being searched, e.g. the attribute name of the file.

Operator – Test that is performed on the data to provide a match, e.g. contains.

Value – The content of the attribute that is tested, e.g. the name of the file My cool document.

Combine clauses with the conjunctions and or or, and negate the query with not.

Fields

Term	Valid operators	Usage
`name`	`contains` ¹, `=`, `!=`	Name of the file. Surround with single quotes `'`. Escape single quotes in queries with `\'`, e.g., `'Valentine\'s Day'`.
`fullText`	`contains` ² ³	Full text of the file including name, description, content, and indexable text. Whether the ‘title’, ‘description’, or ‘indexableText‘ properties, or the content of the file matches. Surround with single quotes `'`. Escape single quotes in queries with `\'`, e.g., `'Valentine\'s Day'`.
`mimeType`	`contains`, `=`, `!=`	MIME type of the file. Surround with single quotes `'`. Escape single quotes in queries with `\'`, e.g., `'Valentine\'s Day'`.
`modifiedTime`	`<=`, `<`, `=`, `!=`, `>`, `>=`	Date of the last modification of the file. RFC 3339 format, default timezone is UTC, e.g., `2012-06-04T12:00:00-08:00`. Fields of type `date` are not currently comparable to each other, only to constant dates.
`viewedByMeTime`	`<=`, `<`, `=`, `!=`, `>`, `>=`	Date that the user last viewed a file. RFC 3339 format, default timezone is UTC, e.g., `2012-06-04T12:00:00-08:00`. Fields of type `date` are not currently comparable to each other, only to constant dates.
`trashed`	`=`, `!=`	Whether the file is in the trash or not. Can be either `true` or `false`.
`starred`	`=`, `!=`	Whether the file is starred or not. Can be either `true` or `false`.
`parents`	`in`	Whether the parents collection contains the specified ID.
`owners` ⁴	`in`	Users who own the file.
`writers` ⁴	`in`	Users or groups who have permission to modify the file. See Permissions resource reference.
`readers` ⁴	`in`	Users or groups who have permission to read the file. See Permissions resource reference.
`sharedWithMe`	`=`, `!=`	Files that are in the user’s “Shared with me” collection. All file users are in the file’s access control list (ACL). Can be either `true` or `false`.
`properties`	`has`	Public custom file properties.
`appProperties`	`has`	Private custom file properties.
`visibility`	`=`, ‘!=’	The visibility level of the file. Valid values are anyoneCanFind, anyoneWithLink, domainCanFind, domainWithLink, and limited. Surround with single quotes `'`. Escape single quotes in queries with `\'`, e.g., `'Valentine\'s Day'`.

[1] The contains operator only performs prefix matching for a name. For example, the name “HelloWorld” would match for name contains 'Hello' but not name contains 'World'.

[2] The contains operator only performs matching on entire string tokens for fullText. For example, if the full text of a doc contains the string “HelloWorld” only the query fullText contains 'HelloWorld' returns a result. Queries such as fullText contains 'Hello' do not return results in this scenario.

[3] The contains operator matches on an exact alphanumeric phrase if it is surrounded by double quotes. For example, if the fullText of a doc contains the string “Hello there world”, then the query fullText contains '"Hello there"' returns a result, but the query fullText contains '"Hello world"' doesn’t. Furthermore, since the search is alphanumeric, if the fullText of a doc contains the string “Hello_world”, then the query fullText contains '"Hello world"' returns a result.

[4] The owners, writers and readers properties are indirectly reflected in the list and refer to the role on the permission.

Value types

Value Type	Notes
String	Surround with single quotes `'`. Escape single quotes in queries with `\'`, e.g., `'Valentine\'s Day'`.
Boolean	`true` or `false`.
Date	RFC 3339 format, default timezone is UTC, e.g., `2012-06-04T12:00:00-08:00`.

Operators

Operator	Usage
`contains`	The content of one string is present in the other.
`=`	The content of a string or boolean is equal to the other.
`!=`	The content of a string or boolean is not equal to the other.
`<`	A value is less than another.
`<=`	A value is less than or equal to another.
`>`	A value is greater than another.
`>=`	A value is greater than or equal to another.
`in`	An element is contained within a collection.
`and`	Return items that match both queries.
`or`	Return items that match either query.
`not`	Negates a search query.
`has`	A collection contains an element matching the parameters.

For compound clauses, you can use parentheses to group clauses together. For example:

modifiedTime > '2019-06-04T12:00:00' and (mimeType contains 'image/' or mimeType contains 'video/')

This search returns all files with an image or video MIME type that their last modification was after June 4, 2019. Because and and or operators are evaluated from left to right, without parentheses, the above example would return only images modified after June 4, 2019, but would return all videos, even those before June 4, 2019.

Examples

Files with the name “hello”	`name = 'hello'`
Files with a name containing the words “hello” and “goodbye”	`name contains 'hello' and name contains 'goodbye'`
Files with a name that does not contain the word “hello”	`not name contains 'hello'`
Folders that are Google apps or have the folder MIME type	`mimeType = 'application/ vnd. google-apps. folder'`
Files that are not folders	`mimeType != 'application/ vnd. google-apps. folder'`
Files that contain the text “important” and in the trash	`fullText contains 'important' and trashed = true`
Files that contain the word “hello”	`fullText contains 'hello'`
Files that do not have the word “hello”	`not fullText contains 'hello'`
Files that contain the exact phrase “hello world”	`fullText contains '"hello world"'`
Files with a query that contains the “” character (e.g., “\authors”)	`fullText contains '\\authors'`
Files with ID within a collection, e.g. `parents` collection	`'1234567' in parents`
Files in an Application data folder in a collection	`'appDataFolder' in parents`
Files for which user “[email protected]” has write permission	`'test@example. org' in writers`
Files for which members of the group “[email protected]” have write permission	`'group@example. org' in writers`
Files modified after a given date	`modifiedTime > '2012-06-04T12:00:00' / / default time zone is UTC`
Files shared with the authorized user with “hello” in the name	`sharedWithMe and name contains 'hello'`
Files that have not been shared with anyone or domains (only private, or shared with specific users or groups)	`visibility = 'limited'`
Image or video files modified after a specific date	`modifiedTime > '2012-06-04T12:00:00' and (mimeType contains 'image/ ' or mimeType contains 'video/ ')`

Possible problems

Unable to upload or update a file

There are several situations when uploading or updating a file fails:

The uploaded file is too big and exceeds the maximum file size limit allowed for your Google Drive planCombination of a license (enabled features) and tier (numeric limits) and a subscription period (monthly / yearly). or you have exceeded your Google Drive storage limit. You can either upgrade your storage plan or delete existing files from the Google Drive service.

The selected folder where the file was to be uploaded to no longer exists. The scenario stops and it is then necessary to select a target folder again.

Failed to verify connection ‘My Google Restricted connection’. Status Code Error: 400
