List changes made to files in your Google Drive since the last time this step ran (up to 1000)

The first time this action runs, it takes note of the current `pageToken` returned by Google, and returns no changes.
Subsequent runs of this step use that `pageToken` to determine what has changed since the last time this step ran.

The Google Drive component authenticates requests through the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) OAuth 2.0 service.
You'll need to create a GCP OAuth 2.0 app so your integration can authenticate and perform Google Drive tasks on your customers' behalf.

To create a Google Drive OAuth 2.0 app, first make sure you have a Google Developer account - you can sign up at [https://console.cloud.google.com/](https://console.cloud.google.com/).
Then:

1. Open up the Google Drive API console - [https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/api/drive.googleapis.com](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/api/drive.googleapis.com)
1. Click **CREATE PROJECT** if you would like to create a new GCP project, or select an existing project.
1. You will be prompted to enable **Google Drive API** for your project. Click **ENABLE**.
1. On the sidebar, select **Credentials**.
1. An OAuth 2.0 app includes a "Consent Screen" (the page that asks "Do you want to allow (Your Company) to access Google Drive on your behalf?"). Click **CONFIGURE CONSENT SCREEN**.
   1. Your app will be externally available to your customers, so choose a **User Type** of **External**.
   1. Fill out the OAuth consent screen with an app name (your company or product's name), support email, app logo, domain, etc.
   1. You can ignore domains for now.
   1. On the next page, add the scope `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive`.
   1. Enter some **test users** for your testing purposes.
      Your app will only work for those testing users until it is "verified" by Google.
      When you are ready for verification (they verify your privacy policy statement, etc), click **PUBLISH APP** on the **OAuth consent screen**.
      That'll allow your customers to authorize your integration to access their Google Drive.
1. Once your "Consent Screen" is configured open the **Credentials** page from the sidebar again.
1. Click **+CREATE CREDENTIALS** and select **OAuth client ID**.
   1. Under **Application type** select **Web application**.
   1. Under **Authorized redirect URIs** enter the OAuth 2.0 callback URL: <OauthCallbackUrl />
   1. Click **CREATE**.
1. Take note of the **Client ID** and **Client Secret** that are generated.

:::info
Make sure to **publish** your OAuth 2.0 app after you've tested it so users outside of your _test users_ can authorize your integration to interact with Google Drive on their behalf.
:::

Now that you have a **Client ID** and **Client Secret**, add Google Drive step to your flow.
Open the **Configuration Wizard Designer** by clicking **Configuration Wizard**, select your **Google Drive Connection** and enter your client ID and secret.
You will probably want to keep the default [Google Drive scope](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/scopes#drive), `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive`.


[Google Drive](https://www.google.com/drive/) is Google's cloud storage for work and home.
This component allows you to create, copy, download, update, list, and delete files stored in a Google Drive Account.


Checks for Google Drive activity. By default yields activity on personal 'My Drive'. For activity on a shared drive, specify a shared drive's folder's 'Folder ID'.
