Can I set file locking using google api?

when I look at Gdrive, there is another client fuse for installing Gdrive. Interestingly, when changing a file on Gdrive through this client, the file is “locked” or set to “in use” in some other way so that others cannot change the “original” on the Internet? I did not find anything about this. Is there a lock method with google docs api?

There is no such function, but you can use ETag file entries to ensure that no one else has modified the file since it was delivered. This is not exactly the same thing, but it can achieve the same effect that changes from one place will not be overwritten by changes from another place.

Pretty sure they don't have that. You should consider offering it in the Google Docs feature request forums .
