Can my app be notified of file updates on my Googl

问题:

I'd like my app to be notified whenever files are added, deleted or modified on my Google Drive directory (or subdirectory). Does Google Drive support webhooks o similar mechanisms for 3rd party integration? I couldn't find anything like that in the API docs.

Thanks in advance.

We now support push notifications for early access program members. One of our recent blog posts announces this.

Google Drive API Push Notifications We also told developers about an upcoming Push Notifications system at Google IO 2012. Push Notifications will allow you to get near-instant notifications when files are modified in Google Drive. In the past you would typically have had to frequently poll the Drive API to check if files have been modified to obtain similar results, Push notifications makes this super efficient.

Google IO 2012 had an announcement about Push Notifications and an Apps Script example from IO is available as a web app Drive Eye

You can create a simple Apps Script with a periodic trigger that calls your app using UriFetch.
