How to get a token

1. Save the credential to disk and specify the path to them by setting the pathToCredentials configuration key

$googleDrive = new Drive([
    'pathToCredentials' => __DIR__ . '/credentials.json', // Required
    'pathToToken' => __DIR__ . '/token.json', // Required
]);

Note that pathToToken is the path where the Drive saves the token after the first run. That is, the token will be saved automatically along the specified path; it is needed for your application to subsequently access Google Drive without the consent screen.

2. Run your app
