Class FilesResource.CreateRequest

Creates a file. For more information, see Create and manage files. This method supports an /upload URI and accepts uploaded media with the following characteristics: - Maximum file size: 5,120 GB - Accepted Media MIME types: */* (Specify a valid MIME type, rather than the literal */* value. The literal */* is only used to indicate that any valid MIME type can be uploaded. For more information, see Google Workspace and Google Drive supported MIME types.) For more information on uploading files, see Upload file data. Apps creating shortcuts with the create method must specify the MIME type application/vnd.google-apps.shortcut. Apps should specify a file extension in the name property when inserting files with the API. For example, an operation to insert a JPEG file should specify something like "name": "cat.jpg" in the metadata. Subsequent GET requests include the read-only fileExtension property populated with the extension originally specified in the name property. When a Google Drive user requests to download a file, or when the file is downloaded through the sync client, Drive builds a full filename (with extension) based on the name. In cases where the extension is missing, Drive attempts to determine the extension based on the file's MIME type.
