Hi @burnash
It didn’t. I had to add a usage f the parameter supportsAllDrives to the method Create. I will create a PR.
@ryan-pixel after running some test (see latest comment in #865 ) I noticed GSpread is now able to open files in shared drives using default settings.
I recommend you give it second chance using the latest version from the master branch, as for now the latest release is coming but not out yet.
