In this post, I am going to save your time by showing how to download files from Google Drive

This method works to download files using wget.

Steps to follow are -

1. pip install gdown

2. Create link to your file with “Anyone with link for a file” — Use the share button
to create that link. Top right corner of the Google drive file page.

Use the copy link and paste that in the new window.You will see a link like below

3. Copy the id of the file.

4. gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=file_id
