Hi Avian,

Please check the sample for the same 

$source = "https://docs.google.com/a/domainname.co.in/spreadsheets/d/1in0m8PhfiYhu4qCWO1dxNc3OS3p8prF7HWRZ-bjnKBI/export?format=xlsx"
$dest = "Z:\Corp\Comp Serv\Comp Op\OB\Dep Data\Call\Google backup\download.xlsx"
$WebClient = New-Object System.Net.WebClient
$WebProxy = New-Object System.Net.WebProxy("http://myproxy.com:1111",$true)
$Credentials = New-Object Net.NetworkCredential("user,"","domain.local")
$Credentials = $Credentials.GetCredential("http://myproxy.com","1111", "KERBEROS");
$WebProxy.Credentials = $Credentials
$WebClient.Proxy = $WebProxy
$WebClient.DownloadFile($source,$dest)

You also could check Google Drive API at https://developers.google.com/drive/v3/web/manage-downloads

Hi Kailas

Thanks, but I already saw this article and post in the forum. It is more on download particular spreadsheet.

I am looking for some better article or example with step by step instruction.
