You can use a tool called gdrive instead of wget/curl. Step 2 Execute the command, it may give same error as mentioned above but thats ok. Step 1 Use the command wget -no-check-certificate -load-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt "$(wget -quiet -save-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt -keep-session-cookies -no-check-certificate '' -O- | sed -rn 's/.*confirm=(+).*/\1\n/p')&id=FILE_ID" -O FILE_NAME_ALONG_WITH_SUFFIX & rm -rf /tmp/cookies.txtĬhange FILE_ID in 2 locations and FILE_NAME_WITH_SUFFIX once. It may show "Will not apply HSTS" as error but its ok. Note that, do not forget to add the suffix like (.zip.

For this method, we need to know, whether our file size comes under small or large cat. curl -L " fileId #" -o sampleoutput.csvĪs of to use wget to download a file from Google Drive, I used the following method. When you want to download a publicly shared file of small size from Google Drive, you can use the following command. In this case, the ID for downloading is retrieved from the HTML data as follows. In order to retrieve the code from the cookie and download the file, you can use the following script. #HttpOnly_. TRUE /uc TRUE # download_warning_# ABCD At the cookie, you can see it as follows.

You can download the file using the code. How about this method? When the file is such large size, Google returns a code for downloading the file.
