The ID of this shared drive which is also the ID of the top level folder of this shared drive. - `restrictions` object — A set of restrictions that apply to this shared drive or items inside this shared drive. Note that restrictions can't be set when creating a shared drive. To add a restriction, first create a shared drive and then use `drives.update` to add restrictions. - `adminManagedRestrictions` boolean — Whether administrative privileges on this shared drive are required to modify restrictions. - `driveMembersOnly` boolean — Whether access to items inside this shared drive is restricted to its members. - `downloadRestriction` DownloadRestriction — A restriction for copy and download of the file. - `restrictedForReaders` boolean — Whether download and copy is restricted for readers. - `restrictedForWriters` boolean — Whether download and copy is restricted for writers.
