# Test Drive Write

`POST /developer/transcript-filing/test-write`

Prove write access to the configured filing root before enabling live
filing: upload a uniquely-named marker file into drive_root_folder_id,
then trash it (recoverable ~30 days; never a hard delete).

The read-only browse endpoint proves impersonation + read; on a shared
drive only an actual write proves the impersonated user's membership role
allows file creation. Every attempt is recorded in drive_write_test_log.
