Any news on this? Is this great project still alive?

@RudahXimenes

Google changed their API, so now they consider non-browser apps as insecure. The way to change this is doing some kind of xdg-open on the ODrive to catch the token.

A possible palliative solution is find the database which stores the token and insert it manually.
I tried to find the database by myself, but I couldn't found.

If someone know coding, please help us.

Well guys, this is just outdated. I downloaded the source and built it with new electron-bundler (the GUI Framework). And guess what it is working again. So either someone is forking this and continue developing or the devs would become active again.

@kian1991

If someone want to fork it should be really nice. But if it not happen, there are the VGrive, which still in development.

But in VGrive there is only one maintainer and have some bugs that still in progress. If someone knows Vala / C / C# and wants to help the guy, it will be really good.

Any chance you can post detailed instructions on how to do this for thouse of us that are new to Linux, I tried removing and reinstalling ODrive with the same result as privous.

One hacky solution is to retrieve the AuthURL from console log, than manually paste into the broswer and give access to ODrive:
Check ../ODrive/node_modules/google-auth-library/lib/auth/oauth2client.js after npm install and insert
console.log(rootUrl + '?' + querystring.stringify(opts)); into line 125:

OAuth2Client.prototype.generateAuthUrl = function(opt_opts) {
  var opts = opt_opts || {};
//...
//...
  console.log(rootUrl + '?' + querystring.stringify(opts));
  return rootUrl + '?' + querystring.stringify(opts);
};

than you will get the Auth URL during npm start on console output which you can open in browser:

Generating oauth url
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?access_type=offline...
GET /connect 302 3.489 ms - 628

Ok I'm still having the same problem, even though one guy claims the bug to be fixed. Did a fresh install and still no change. And I don't have any programming experience outside of basic on a trs 80 back in the early 80's. Anyone have a solution a mortal can understand?

A workaround that work from is to launch opendrive and instead of using the electron browser that is launched, open other browser like firefox and navigate to "127.0.0.1:16409/settings" and follow the configuration steps in this browser.

  console.log(rootUrl + '?' + querystring.stringify(opts));

This helped me move on from the Error page. However, on return from Google I get this error on the browser:

I used to use grive2, it worked well, but required heavy effort of command line commands in order to work, and also it failed sometimes writing over files. Than I changed to ODrive and I love it.

grive2 is with the same problem because google changed the authorization for third apps limit.

are there open source alternatives that actually work?

Indeed, @kreezxil, VGrive (published also as Flatpak) works pretty good; I don't have any problems so far with it, but I'm not an everyday user, just a casual one.

Just downloaded VGrive from AUR on Manjaro XFCE. Setup was easy but it appears to sync all of Google Drive to the computer.
I'd like to be able to choose what folders/files are synced.

It does't work for me, it says that the app is not verified by google yet

@Setinggil

After many trial & error, I get this work.

Combine @GeethanadhP method

if found this solution

1. Clone the repo

2. Create an oauth app in google api console

3. Update the api, secret value in `config/globals.js`

5. As you will be the only one using, though it will show "insecure" login page, you can select advanced and continue insecure way

6. As you will be the only user, you don't have to submit the app for verification

Note: Update the below css path in webpack.config.js (remove the url with prefix - donno why that was changed, but that made the ui not load the css)

  new MiniCssExtractPlugin({
      filename: '/stylesheets/styles.css',
    })

Apparently if you create an account there on the dialog box instead of signing in, it works for that newly created account. Does not help me as I want my sync from my existing account. Might be helpful for some if you want a fresh start.

Linux users I recommend using https://www.insynchq.com/downloads and it's the Manjaro Aur system. It actually used my browser so no issue with https and i'm syncing down my 15gb of data finally.

I paid for "insynchq" and "OverGrive. What I got was a terabyte of corrupter files.
Most had date in front of the file.
A vast number had the filename "(convicted)" along with an odd "datename".
There was NO discernible pattern as to which were empty or mangled files, which had misnamed relevant data, and which had old versions of files I had deleted.

It was BAD enough, that found an old Machine with a solid 200GB of archived data, and after using that as my reliable backup, I deleted everything in Google Drive using the web interface, and then waited a week for Google to catch up with my requests.

I deactivated everything with my Google drive access, and cut off all programs accessing my Google drive for over a month.
I then began installing new Linux Mint 20.10 XFCE on all my main systems.

As soon I re-installed and connected insynchq, my trash began to fill with files that had been delete compleatly over a month ago.

I can only assume that the developers never used Google Drive on either a Windows or Mac, because this behavior is something unlike anyone would want.

The WORST thing about insynchq is that attempt to end your sync with Google Drive force the deletion of all files on the device insynchq on the device?

Probably THE best feature of Google Drive was it's ability leave a directory of offline files. With insynchq,, THE EXACT OPPOSITE BEHAVIOUR IS FORCED!!!

These products are NO solution for Google Drive.

InSync was the best investment, one time fee, lifetime license, unlimited installs if used on your email that you registered with. you can quickly get there by following https://kreezcraft.com/its-worth-it

i'm glad it satisfied YOUR needs.

If they had paid ME, it wouldn't be worth the data loss, corruption, and downtime caused by Insynch.
Sadly I guess too many of us are too busy trying to rebuild our Google Drives from archives to be able class action www.insynchq.
