Saving a photo from mobile to GDrive

Question

I want to take a photo with my mobile and save it to the Google Drive in a particular folder. I can, for example, wait my photo to be uploaded by Google's background service, and then save it with the script to Google Drive. But, unfortunately, code like

var albums = PicasaApp.getAlbums();

yields the error

"Object PicasaApp is not defined".

Is Picasa API no more accessible? How else can I send photos to Google Drive?

Answer 1

PicasaApp is not a native Apps Script built-in - it is a library that must be installed into every script that desires to use it.

Library Code:

Follow the Apps Script procedures to Install a Library and you will be able to call its methods.
