Bulk download files from Google Drive from url list

0

1

I have a list of 100 urls that link to files on google drive that I want to download. Each url is like this:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8asdfasdfasd4YXc/view?usp=sharing

How can I download them all in bulk? Ideally I'd put the urls in a text file and then something would download them all. They are videos

Ok, I can change the urls to this:

https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=[TheFileID]

but I still have the click the "download anyway" button

Try using WGET. – Julian Knight – 2016-12-10T20:39:04.193

I tried it but I get this:

 Resolving drive.google.com (drive.google.com)... 172.217.6.14
 Connecting to drive.google.com       (drive.google.com)|172.217.6.14|:443... connected.

Ah, are the links open or do they require a logged in user? – Julian Knight – 2016-12-10T21:50:33.143

I don't think they require you to be logged in but when you click the download icon upon opening a video in google drive it does give a warning that the file is too big to be scanned by a virus scanner. So maybe you have to go through all that before you can download each video but it would seem like someone has had this problem before and wrote a script to solve it. – David – 2016-12-10T22:39:44.433
