Does webContentLink work in Google Drive downloading?

I was able to get the download file via the Google Drive API with this GET CALL:

https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/{{id}}/?key={{Google Cloud App API KEY}}&alt=media

The {{id}} is the File ID of the Google Drive file to download available in the URL of the file.

The {{Google Cloud App API Key}} is configurable through well known instructions on adding a Google Cloud app.. But you don’t need any oAuth stuff - just a credential needs to be created called API key.
