[Android] Unable to pick native files from Google Drive (i.e.: docs, spreadsheet, slides)

Bug report

Summary

Unable to pick native files from Google Drive (i.e.: google docs, spreadsheet, slides) on Android as they are disabled, pdfs and images work fine though. iOS has no issues.

I tried to add the google mime types to the type key in the options prop as you can see below in the sample code, but that is not accepted. DocumentPicker.types.allFiles seems to not include google drive file types.

If the library is missing support or will not support this feature, which I believe it should. Can someone please point me in the right direction of how to get it working?

Reproducible sample code

Current implementation

public static pickFile(options = { type: [DocumentPicker.types.allFiles] }) { return DocumentPicker.pick(options).then((filePicked) => { ... }); }

My unsucessfull tentative of get the google docs working:

public static pickFile(options = { type: [DocumentPicker.types.allFiles, 'application/vnd.google-apps.document'] }) { return DocumentPicker.pick(options).then((filePicked) => { ... }); }

Steps to reproduce

1. Launch the Picker
2. Select Google Drive Folder
3. Google Docs, Google SpreadSheet and Google Slides are disabled and unable to be selected on Android

Describe what you expected to happen:

1. Be able to select Google Docs, Google SpreadSheet and Google Slides from the picker on Android

Environment info

Tested on versions:

• RN 0.60.4 + react-native-document-picker: 4.3.0
• RN 0.64.2 + react-native-document-picker: 6.0.4

iOS version: - Android version: 11

hello @lucasftcruz, please be so kind and stop +1 ing your posts - it's spamming the maintainers (me). I'm currently focusing my time on other OSS projects I maintain or projects that pay the bills. Until I get back to this repo, I suggest that you try to investigate the situation yourself and perhaps share (add to the original post) what you have tried and found 🙂 . Thanks! 👍
