This page describes how to unset a label Field
on a single Google Drive file.
To remove metadata from a file by unsetting a file label, use the
files.modifyLabels
method.
You also need to specify:
The
fieldId
of the field to modify.unsetValues
istrue
to unset the values for the field.The
labelId
of the label to modify.The
fileId
of the file for which the labels are modified.
This example uses the fieldId
and labelId
to unset the field values on the
associated fileId
. To locate the fieldId
, retrieve the label using the
Drive Google Drive Labels API.
Java
LabelFieldModification fieldModification =
new LabelFieldModification().setFieldId("FIELD_ID").setUnsetValues(true);
ModifyLabelsRequest modifyLabelsRequest =
new ModifyLabelsRequest()
.setLabelModifications(
ImmutableList.of(
new LabelModification()
.setLabelId("LABEL_ID")
.setFieldModifications(ImmutableList.of(fieldModification))));
ModifyLabelsResponse modifyLabelsResponse = driveService.files().modifyLabels("FILE_ID", modifyLabelsRequest).execute();
Python
field_modification = {'fieldId':'FIELD_ID','unsetValues':True}
label_modification = {'labelId':'LABEL_ID', 'fieldModifications':[field_modification]}
modified_labels = drive_service.files().modifyLabels(fileId="FILE_ID", body = {'labelModifications' : [label_modification]});
