Google Drive API files:COPY returns 404 error

Question

When I run 'https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files' successfully works

However if I try 'https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/{fileId}/copy' it returns a 404 Error

• Have double checked the 'fileId'.
• Have cleared the cache and tried but not working
• Have checked the Scope Permissions...
• The scopes are 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.appdata https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.photos.readonly'

The same example, If I Try on 'Drive Explorer Try Now', it works fine there as well. So what's wrong not able to figure out

$url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/1ZYyl0MzfWy_V5Io3N0BTsF19pNiX7s23BqYPbQKplvU/copy';   

$ch = curl_init();      
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);        
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Authorization: Bearer '. $access_token));
$data = json_decode(curl_exec($ch), true);

$http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);     

if($http_code != 200) 
    throw new Exception('Error : Failed');
    
return $data;

404 not found means just that that the end point you are trying is not found.

But your copy does not work and you say you have checked that its the same file i did.

I wonder Copy is a http Post request did you forget to send it as a post?

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
