Schemas

Creates a shared drive For more information, see Manage shared drives (https: developers google com workspace drive api guides manage-shareddrives) — response body

Field	Type	Presence	Description and constraints
$	object	Root	Representation of a shared drive. Some resource methods (such as `drives.update`) require a `driveId`. Use the `drives.list` method to retrieve the ID for a shared drive.
backgroundImageFile	object	Optional	An image file and cropping parameters from which a background image for this shared drive is set. This is a write only field; it can only be set on `drive.drives.update` requests that don't set `themeId`. When specified, all fields of the `backgroundImageFile` must be set.
backgroundImageFile.id	string	Optional	The ID of an image file in Google Drive to use for the background image.
backgroundImageFile.width	JSON	Optional
backgroundImageFile.width (anyOf 1)	number	Alternative	The width of the cropped image in the closed range of 0 to 1. This value represents the width of the cropped image divided by the width of the entire image. The height is computed by applying a width to height aspect ratio of 80 to 9. The resulting image must be at least 1280 pixels wide and 144 pixels high. Format: float
backgroundImageFile.width (anyOf 2)	string	Alternative	Pattern: ^-?[0-9]+(?:\.[0-9]+)?(?:[eE][+-]?[0-9]+)?$
backgroundImageFile.xCoordinate	JSON	Optional
backgroundImageFile.xCoordinate (anyOf 1)	number	Alternative	The X coordinate of the upper left corner of the cropping area in the background image. This is a value in the closed range of 0 to 1. This value represents the horizontal distance from the left side of the entire image to the left side of the cropping area divided by the width of the entire image. Format: float
backgroundImageFile.xCoordinate (anyOf 2)	string	Alternative	Pattern: ^-?[0-9]+(?:\.[0-9]+)?(?:[eE][+-]?[0-9]+)?$
backgroundImageFile.yCoordinate	JSON	Optional
backgroundImageFile.yCoordinate (anyOf 1)	number	Alternative	The Y coordinate of the upper left corner of the cropping area in the background image. This is a value in the closed range of 0 to 1. This value represents the vertical distance from the top side of the entire image to the top side of the cropping area divided by the height of the entire image. Format: float
backgroundImageFile.yCoordinate (anyOf 2)	string	Alternative	Pattern: ^-?[0-9]+(?:\.[0-9]+)?(?:[eE][+-]?[0-9]+)?$
backgroundImageLink	string	Optional	Output only. A short-lived link to this shared drive's background image.
capabilities	Model	Optional	Expand Creates a shared drive For more information, see Manage shared drives (https: developers google com workspace drive api guides manage-shareddrives) — response body — capabilities
colorRgb	string	Optional	The color of this shared drive as an RGB hex string. It can only be set on a `drive.drives.update` request that does not set `themeId`.
createdTime	string	Optional	The time at which the shared drive was created (RFC 3339 date-time). Format: date-time
hidden	boolean	Optional	Whether the shared drive is hidden from default view.
id	string	Optional	Output only. The ID of this shared drive which is also the ID of the top level folder of this shared drive.
kind	string	Optional	Output only. Identifies what kind of resource this is. Value: the fixed string `"drive#drive"`. Default: drive#drive
name	string	Optional	The name of this shared drive.
orgUnitId	string	Optional	Output only. The organizational unit of this shared drive. This field is only populated on `drives.list` responses when the `useDomainAdminAccess` parameter is set to `true`.
restrictions	Model	Optional	Expand Creates a shared drive For more information, see Manage shared drives (https: developers google com workspace drive api guides manage-shareddrives) — response body — restrictions
themeId	string	Optional	The ID of the theme from which the background image and color will be set. The set of possible `driveThemes` can be retrieved from a `drive.about.get` response. When not specified on a `drive.drives.create` request, a random theme is chosen from which the background image and color are set. This is a write-only field; it can only be set on requests that don't set `colorRgb` or `backgroundImageFile`.

Field	Type	Presence	Description and constraints
$	object	Root	A set of restrictions that apply to this shared drive or items inside this shared drive. Note that restrictions can't be set when creating a shared drive. To add a restriction, first create a shared drive and then use `drives.update` to add restrictions.

Policy, approvals and errors

SDK function policy ID: google.drive_drives_unhide. Catalog operation: drive.drives.unhide. Rules can name either ID; function rules distinguish managed calls and conservatively cover raw calls sharing the route. Existing grant permissions and policy rules apply. wait() returns an immediate result or waits for a required approval; it never approves the request itself. Persist the approval ID to resume after a restart.

Provider errors retain their response; JSON decoding raises ProviderAPIError for provider failures. ManagedOperationError identifies contract/input/retention errors. See error handling and provider-specific behavior. Sensitive input may be refused before approval storage. A decoding error never resubmits a write.
