The Google CLI gcloud does not have features to access files in Google Drive.

The command line option --enable-gdrive-access exists to enable permissions so that services such as BigQuery can access Google Drive.

For Windows users, you can direcftly access files stored in Google Drive after installing Google Drive File System: link.

For Linux, I am not aware of an official tool. I use Drive CLI: link.
