Thank you for your feedback!

Get

/v3/projects/{project_id}/drive/tasks/{task_id}

Checks the current status of an asynchronous background task such as a bulk upload. Task IDs are returned from async operations like file uploads. Poll this endpoint to determine when the task completes. Requires ViewDrive permission.

Security

OAuth

All V3 endpoints require a Bearer token. Generate tokens in the Document360 portal under Settings > API Tokens. Tokens are project-scoped, require the customerApi scope, and do not expire by default. Tokens can be revoked at any time from the portal. Include the token in every request: Authorization: Bearer <your-token>. Alternatively, use the Authorize button below to sign in via OAuth2 Authorization Code flow with PKCE.
