Google Drive API Advanced Sharing Settings

I want to change the advanced sharing settings via API as seen here: http://cdn.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Disable-Copying02.jpg

As it states here: http://venturebeat.com/2015/07/14/you-can-now-disable-downloading-printing-and-copying-for-any-file-stored-in-google-drive/ this should be possible, but I cannot find anything in the Documentation?

Could you point me to the right part of the documentation or give a short example?

Thanks so much!

Drive API provides a files().update option as documented here: https://developers.google.com/drive/v2/reference/files/update

In the request parameters, the labels.restricted property can be set to True so that download, printing, etc. is disabled, and writersCanShare property should be False so that editors cannot change access.
