I had been working on Colab using:
from google.colab import drive
.mount('/content/gdrive')
with no problems, until today.
I don't know why this error was raised:

As everyone knows, this code opens a new tab where you have to select a Google account, click on the 'Allow' button, and copy a long password to Colab
EDIT:
I tried to do the same in another way with:
#Installing PyDrive
!pip install PyDrive
#Importing modules
from pydrive.auth import GoogleAuth
from pydrive.drive import GoogleDrive
from google.colab import auth
from oauth2client.client import GoogleCredentials
#Authenticating and creating the PyDrive client
auth.authenticate_user()
gauth = GoogleAuth()
gauth.credentials = GoogleCredentials.get_application_default()
drive = GoogleDrive(gauth)
#Getting the file
downloaded2 = drive.CreateFile({'id':"1QGtoo1wqCP2yrjl8kFu4kTfjWqh3EOdt"}) # replace the id with id of file you want to access
downloaded2.GetContentFile('estructura_cc_felipe.xlsx')
But it raises this error:

Does anyone know what is wrong? I have been working for a long time importing files located on my Google drive and never had these problems.
It turns out that if you manually copy the auth code from the auth button instead of clicking the copy button, it works
