[Solved] How to play audio files that are shared in Google Drive

Hello, Thunkers

I am trying to create an app that can play audio files that are stored in Google Drive. I am able to get the share link of those files. But my app still cannot play those files. I tested those files by double click on the file on Google Drive and it played jus fine. I don’t know whether I have to modify the shared link of those files before I use them in my app. Please advice.

Thank you.

Ok now I can solve it. I modified the link a bit by replacing “adding uc?id=” and delete some parts.

Thank you.

Suppose you have a shred file which would look like this:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Th9wEbgQHdaV2vP-OOu-7hDOBY0RG7ih/view?usp=drivesdk

Use the same link but change the /view or /open to /uc like this:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Th9wEbgQHdaV2vP-OOu-7hDOBY0RG7ih/uc?usp=drivesdk

Hi seems the solution is not working now. Have done exactly the same solution but it’s playing the audio file. Also, tried running the solution URL on the browser and this is the google error.
