Description
Hi!
So I need to use service account authentication since I'm in a headless setup with no GUI access in the machine. So I have created a service account, shared the drive folder with that account and given it Editor permissions.
The problem is that I can't seem to remove files like this. I googled a bit and turns out Editors can't remove files from Drive. So I'm wondering if there's any approach with PyDrive2 to have a headless setup and to be able to remove files.
Any alternatives will be appreciated!
Also trashing the files would be okay, but can't do that either.
