Is there an updated script to install Google Drive? I have been trying to deploy Google Drive via Self Service using the package installer. 9/10 times it fails, whereas installing Google Chrome with a script works every time. I would like to do this with Google Drive. I have seen a few scripts out there, but they are many years old.

I'm just looking for a script to install Google Drive. I am not looking to learn a whole new process. I might go down the Installomator road at some time in the future, but today is not that day. I do have it bookmarked though.

Jamfs Mac Apps has a policy for google drive. If that nor installomator are viable for you, I would suggest contacting google for their "evergreen" download URL for google drive so you can curl down the most current version and install it with a script.

I admit, I haven't tried using that option (Jamf Mac Apps) in a while. It used to always fail when users would install via Self Service. I will try that and see if it is working more consistently now.

Forgot where I got this from. I don't use this myself, but it still works.
#!/bin/zsh
# make temp folder for downloads
mkdir "/tmp/googledrive"
# change working directory
cd "/tmp/googledrive"
#download Google Drive File Stream
curl -L -o "/tmp/googledrive/GoogleDrive.dmg" "https://dl.google.com/drive-file-stream/GoogleDrive.dmg"
# Mount the DMG
hdiutil mount GoogleDrive.dmg
# Get Volume Name
Volume=$(diskutil info / | grep "Volume Name:" | awk '{print $3,$4,$5,$6}')
# Install Google Drive
sudo installer -pkg /Volumes/Install\ Google\ Drive/GoogleDrive.pkg -target /
#Tidy Up
hdiutil unmount "/Volumes/Install Google Drive"
sudo rm -rf "/tmp/googledrive"
