reading files from google drive

Hello, for a discord bot we are creating, we are in need of accessing folders from google drive, as we can't access them with a local directory, duh. As of this, I read into Google API and Drive API, but I am completely new and unaware of how to do this. How would I go about this.

it would be much more appropriate to use a storage bucket like cloudflare r2

Okay, I have no idea how to go about this. I take it it's like a online 'storage'?

cloud storage, yes here are the cloudflare docs for r2 https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/get-started/ you will probably wanna use the aws s3 sdk to access the storage https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/api/s3/tokens/

Okay, I will have to look into this with a lot of detail, I have never done something like this before so it is completely new to me.

For questions unrelated to Railwat, Google is a great resource there will be tutorial videos out there for most services. Just have to know the right keywords
