Is it possible to request access to a document using Google Drive API?

I'm using the Google Drive API (via Java client) with authorized requests. When I tried to download a file which I don't have access to, it returns file not found. Is it possible to request access using the authorized account via Google Drive API?

Answer:

There is no method of the Drive API that allows you to ask for permission for access to a file. The only way of obtaining the access is by visiting the URL of the file and pressing the Request access button, or directly asking the owner of the file.
