Google Classroom test account cannot access Drive


I am currently working on a project involving both the Classroom and Google Drive APIs. However, the Google Classroom test accounts provided by Google do not have access to Google Drive. Is there a way to gain permission to access both of these APIs with a test account?


Solution

  • As per the documentation on test accounts, they do not have access to applications other than Classroom, which does include Drive and therefore the Drive API. However, Google just announced that you can no use Classroom with personal accounts (@gmail.com), which would provide an alternative.
