The easy way    if you just need it for a one-off download    Go to the Google Drive webpage that has the download link Open your browser console and go to the  network  tab Click the download link Wait for it the file to start downloading  and find the corresponding request  should be the last one in the list   then you can cancel the download Right click on the request and click  Copy as cURL   or similar    You should end up with something like   curl  https   doc-0s-80-docs googleusercontent com docs securesc aa51s66fhf9273i                    blah blah blah               gEIqZ3KAQ    --compressed   Past it in your console  add  gt  my-file-name extension to the end  otherwise it will write the file into your console   then press enter

The default behavior of google drive is to scan files for viruses if the file is to big it will prompte the user and notifies him that the file could not be scanned    At the moment the only workaround I found is to share the file with the web and create a web resource    Quote from the google drive help page   With Drive  you can make web resources     like HTML  CSS  and Javascript files     viewable as a website   To host a webpage with Drive         Open Drive at drive google com and select a file      Click the Share button at the top of the page      Click Advanced in the bottom right corner of the sharing box      Click Change         Choose On - Public on the web and click Save      Before closing the sharing box  copy the document ID from the URL in the field below  Link to share   The document ID is a string of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers between slashes in the URL      Share the URL that looks like  www googledrive com host  doc id  where  doc id  is replaced by the document ID you copied in step 6    Anyone can now view your webpage         Found here  https   support google com drive answer 2881970 hl en  So for example when you share a file on google drive publicly the sharelink looks like this   https   drive google com file d 0B5IRsLTwEO6CVXFURmpQZ1Jxc0U view usp sharing   Then you copy the file id and create a googledrive com linke that look like this   https   www googledrive com host 0B5IRsLTwEO6CVXFURmpQZ1Jxc0U

No answer proposes what works for me as of december 2016  source    curl -L https   drive google com uc id  FileID    provided the Google Drive file has been shared with those having the link and  FileID  is the string behind  id  in the shared URL   Although I did not check with huge files  I believe it might be useful to know

The easiest way to is put what ever you want to download in a folder  Share that folder and then grab the Folder ID from the URL Bar    Then go to https   googledrive com host  ID    Replace the ID with your folder ID  You should see a list of all the files in that folder  click the one you want to download  A download should then visit your download page  Ctrl J on Chrome   you then want to copy the download link then use wget  download link   Enjoy

I have been using the curl snippet of  Amit Chahar who posted a good answer in this thread  I found it useful to put it in a bash function rather than a separate  sh file function curl gdrive        GDRIVE FILE ID  1     DEST PATH  2      curl -c   cookie -s -L  quot https   drive google com uc export download amp id   GDRIVE FILE ID  quot   gt   dev null     curl -Lb   cookie  quot https   drive google com uc export download amp confirm  awk   download   print  NF     cookie  amp id   GDRIVE FILE ID  quot  -o   DEST PATH      rm -f cookie    that can be included in e g a    bashrc  after sourcing it ofcourse if not sourced automatically  and used in the following way      curl gdrive 153bpzybhfqDspyO gdbcG5CMlI19ASba imagenet tar

All of the above responses seem to obscure the simplicity of the answer or have some nuances that are not explained     If the file is shared publicly  you can generate a direct download link by just knowing the file ID  The URL must be in the form   https   drive google com uc id  FILEID  amp export download  This works as of 11-22-2019  This does not require the receiver to log in to google but does require the file to be shared publicly      In your browser  navigate to drive google com  Right click on the file  and click  Get a shareable link       Open a new tab  select the address bar  and paste in the contents of your clipboard which will be the shareable link  You ll see the file displayed by Google s viewer  The ID is the number right before the  View  component of the URL        Edit the URL so it is in the following format  replacing   FILEID   with the ID of your shared file    https   drive google com uc id  FILEID  amp export download That s your direct download link  If you click on it in your browser the file will now be  pushed  to your browser  opening the download dialog  allowing you to save or open the file   You can also use this link in your download scripts   So the equivalent curl command would be     curl -L  https   drive google com uc id AgOATNfjpovfFrft9QYa-P1IeF9e7GWcH amp export download   gt  phlat-1 0 tar gz

You can use the open source Linux   Unix command line tool gdrive   To install it    Download the binary  Choose the one that fits your architecture  for example gdrive-linux-x64  Copy it to your path   sudo cp gdrive-linux-x64  usr local bin gdrive  sudo chmod a x  usr local bin gdrive     To use it    Determine the Google Drive file ID  For that  right-click the desired file in the Google Drive website and choose  Get Link       It will return something like https   drive google com open id 0B7 OwkDsUIgFWXA1B2FPQfV5S8H  Obtain the string behind the  id  and copy it to your clipboard  That s the file s ID  Download the file  Of course  use your file s ID instead in the following command   gdrive download 0B7 OwkDsUIgFWXA1B2FPQfV5S8H    At first usage  the tool will need to obtain access permissions to the Google Drive API  For that  it will show you a link which you have to visit in a browser  and then you will get a verification code to copy amp paste back to the tool  The download then starts automatically  There is no progress indicator  but you can observe the progress in a file manager or second terminal   Source  A comment by Tobi on another answer here    nbsp   Additional trick  rate limiting  To download with gdrive at a limited maximum rate  to not swamp the network       you can use a command like this  pv is PipeViewer    gdrive download --stdout 0B7 OwkDsUIgFWXA1B2FPQfV5S8H       pv -br -L 90k       cat  gt  file ext   This will show the amount of data downloaded  -b  and the rate of download  -r  and limit that rate to 90 kiB s  -L 90k

I wrote a Python snippet that downloads a file from Google Drive  given a shareable link  It works  as of August 2017    The snipped does not use gdrive  nor the Google Drive API  It uses the requests module   When downloading large files from Google Drive  a single GET request is not sufficient  A second one is needed  and this one has an extra URL parameter called confirm  whose value should equal the value of a certain cookie   import requests  def download file from google drive id  destination       def get confirm token response           for key  value in response cookies items                if key startswith  download warning                    return value          return None      def save response content response  destination           CHUNK SIZE   32768          with open destination   wb   as f              for chunk in response iter content CHUNK SIZE                   if chunk    filter out keep-alive new chunks                     f write chunk       URL    https   docs google com uc export download       session   requests Session        response   session get URL  params      id    id    stream   True      token   get confirm token response       if token          params      id    id   confirm    token           response   session get URL  params   params  stream   True       save response content response  destination        if   name         main         import sys     if len sys argv  is not 3          print  Usage  python google drive py drive file id destination file path       else            TAKE ID FROM SHAREABLE LINK         file id   sys argv 1            DESTINATION FILE ON YOUR DISK         destination   sys argv 2          download file from google drive file id  destination

May 2018  If you want to use curl to download a file from Google Drive  in addition to the file id in drive you also need an OAuth2 access token for Google Drive API   Getting the token involves several steps with the Google API framework  The sign up steps with Google are  currently  free   An OAuth2 access token potentially allows all kinds of activity  so be careful with it   Also  the token times out after a short while  1 hour   but not short enough to prevent abuse if someone captures it   Once you have an access token and the fileid  this will work   AUTH  Authorization  Bearer the access token goes here  FILEID  fileid goes here  URL https   www googleapis com drive v3 files  FILEID alt media curl --header   AUTH   URL  gt myfile ext   See also  Google Drive APIs -- REST -- Download Files

Here is workaround which I came up download files from Google Drive to my Google Cloud Linux shell    Share the file to PUBLIC and with Edit permissions using advanced sharing  You will get a sharing link which would have an ID  See the link - drive google com file d  ID  view usp sharing Copy that ID and Paste it in the following link -   googledrive com host  ID    The above link would be our download link  Use wget to download the file -   wget https   googledrive com host  ID    This command will download the file with name as  ID  with no extension and but with same file size on the same location where you ran the wget command  Actually  I downloaded a zipped folder in my practice  so I renamed that awkward file using -   mv  ID  1 zip   then using    unzip 1 zip  we will get the files
