OAuth2 Bootstrap
These nodes use OAuth2 with a refresh token. You must obtain the refresh token externally:
- Google Drive: Use OAuth2 Playground with the Drive API scope (
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive) - OneDrive: Register an app in Azure Portal, then run an auth code flow with the
Files.ReadWritescope
Paste the refresh token directly into the config node. The nodes do not implement a UI for the initial OAuth flow.
Design
- One node per operation
- Config node as single source of truth for credentials
msgoverrides always win over node config- Streams over buffering — download nodes return streams, not Buffers
- Manual OAuth bootstrap — no hidden auth flows
- No generalized abstraction layer — Google Drive and OneDrive nodes are independent
