How do I upload files to a Google Drive folder for which I have a shared link with edit permission?

Question

I have a Google Drive account with a folder that has been shared with an edit permission link. While logged into another Google Drive account, I would like to upload some files, using drag and drop to a Chrome Browser window opened with the shared link. Can this be done using a browser? Can this be done with an app using google-drive-sdk?

Solution

Yes, this can be done. If you paste the link into the browser it should take you to the folder. In the corner of the screen there should be an add to drive button. Click it and it will add the shared folder to your drive. If you drag and drop files into that folder then it will add the files for the folder for everyone to see.
