[ERROR] Internal Error / Consent is required to transfer ownership of a file to another user

[oknchm]

Hello! Is the script still functional? Tried to transfer ownership of a folder, its sub-folders, and files but got multiples of 2 different error messages.

1. <HttpError 500 when requesting https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/[FILE_ID]/permissions?transferOwnership=true&alt=json returned "Internal Error". Details: "[{'message': 'Internal Error', 'domain': 'global', 'reason': 'internalError'}]">

2. <HttpError 403 when requesting https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/[FILE_ID]/permissions?transferOwnership=true&alt=json returned "Consent is required to transfer ownership of a file to another user.". Details: "[{'message': 'Consent is required to transfer ownership of a file to another user.', 'domain': 'global', 'reason': 'consentRequiredForOwnershipTransfer'}]">

The command used is python transfer.py --owner "new_owner@gmail.com" --folder "[FOLDER_ID]"

Hope you can help me, thank you!
