This is a sample script for uploading local file to Google Drive without the authorization using HTML form. A selected file in your local PC using HTML form is uploaded to Google Drive and saved to Google Drive.
When you use this, at first, please deploy Web Apps. The script is doPost() of following scripts.
function doPost(e) {
var data = Utilities.base64Decode(e.parameters.data);
var blob = Utilities.newBlob(data, e.parameters.mimetype, e.parameters.filename);
DriveApp.createFile(blob);
var output = HtmlService.createHtmlOutput("<b>Done!</b>");
output.setXFrameOptionsMode(HtmlService.XFrameOptionsMode.ALLOWALL);
return output;
// return ContentService.createTextOutput("Done.") <--- Here, an error occurred.
}- Retrieve data, filename and mimetype as
e.parameters.data,e.parameters.filenameande.parameters.mimetype, respectively. - Decode the data using
Utilities.base64Decode(). - Create blob using
Utilities.newBlob(). - Create the file in the root folder of Google Drive.
https://script.google.com/macros/s/#####/exec is the URL obtained when the Web Apps was deployed. Please replace it to your Web Apps URL. You can open this HTML for the browser of your local PC.

$("#data").empty().append(html);
}
fr.readAsDataURL(file);
});
</script>

</html>- Using
FileReader(), retrieve base64 encoded file, filename and mimetype. - Add input with type="hidden" to
#formas text data.replace(/^.*,/, '')is used for removing a header of encoded data.match(/^.*(?=;)/)[0]is used for retrieving mimetype of uploading file.
- When a submit button is clicked, the base64 data is sent to
doPost()of GAS.
- In order to use this, after the script is modified, please redeploy Web Apps as a new version. By this, the latest script is reflected to Web Apps.
- This sample script can upload one file. If you want to upload several files, please modify script.
var file = this.files[0];means the selected first file. When there are some files, it isfiles[1], files[2] .....
- For downloading files on Google Drive to local PC, I have already published here.
- October 22, 2019: By Max-Makhrov's comment, the error in the script was removed.
