    An Apps Script that finds all files/folders on Google Drive that are shared with others and adds them to a Google Sheet.

  


  




## Usage

 1. Create a new Google Sheet.

 2. Open the Script Editor (Extensions > Apps Script).

 3. Copy and paste the code from [shared-file-finder.js](shared-file-finder.js) into the Script Editor.

 4. Enable `Drive API` in the `Advanced Services` list for the project (see [here](https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/advanced#enable_advanced_services) for instructions). The API version should be v2 and the identifier should be `Drive`.

 5. Save the project and run the `runSharedFileFinder()` function.

**Notes:**

  - Files must be owned by the current Google Drive user.

  - If a folder is shared, both the folder and its files will be shown in the list.

  - There may be bugs. Use at your own risk.

Inspired by a similar script by @danjargold (https://gist.github.com/danjargold/c6542e68fe3a3b46eeb0172f914641bc) and @woodwardtw (https://gist.github.com/woodwardtw/22a199ecca73ff15a0eb). This version uses the Drive API v2 to get info for multiple files at once (which makes it substantially faster).
