Hi peeps!

When I try to run a Google Drive Create a Folder module, I face the below error.  
But the folder is actually created but it gets stuck due to this error. How can I avoid it?

Hi @rym413  
Make sure the person whose connection is being used can access the file. If they can’t, choose a connection that does.

Hi @Msquare_Automation

Thanks for the reply! Actually, I use my own account being used as a connection and I try to create files in the same account google drive.

Any other possible reason behind this?

@Msquare_Automation

When you say scopes, in OAuth consent screen?  
I am not familiar with this but I have added these like this. Is this correct?
