Dim success As Boolean

// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
// Google Drive scope.

// A single REST object, once connected, can be used for many Google Drive REST API calls.

// then it will be automatically re-established as needed.

// To download a file, we must know the file ID.
// In a previous example (see Build Local Metadata Cache
// we built a local cache to make it easy to lookup file IDs given a file path.
// Let's say we want to download "testFolder/abc/123/penguins.jpg".
// First we lookup the fileId in the cache.  With the fileId, we can download the file.
