Before, after.. it does not matter. It needs to be done, otherwise there is no access to the GoogleDrive via API.
I have written an short readme with the Link to the Google API Site.
1. Its needed to go to
https://code.google.com/apis/console/
2. create an Project if there is no one.
3. Then activate on
Servies the "Drive API"
4. On
API Access you should create an
client ID for an
web application
5. Set the Redirect URI to
www.yoursite.com/assets/components/gdriver/auth.php
6. Fill the ClientID, Client secret and your API Key into the System Settings of GDriver, found in the area gdriver
7. Create an MediaResource for the GDriver, and try to Browse, you won`t see any files of directories! It just need to create an authentication request url
8. Back on the System Settings an Description to the access_token appeared with an correct token-request link
now all should be fine...
