I'm trying to download specific folders from Google Drive.
I tried this example http://www.mwclearning.com/?p=1608 but its download all the files from G-Drive.
EX: If I have two folders in Google Drive say..
If I want to download folder A then only 1 , 2 files should get downloaded..
Any suggestion or help could be very helpful.
Thanks in advance.
