Context

When a Google Drive file is stored in Google Sheet format, it must be exported in another format. Currently, we are using the export_file method when the file needs to be exported (the exported_links attribute is present when this happens). According to the documentation, this method:

Exports a Google Doc to the requested MIME type and returns the exported content. Please note that the exported content is limited to 10MB.

That hard-coded 10MB limitation is the reason why the import fails when the file is big and it is stored in Google Sheet format.

According to this question, an alternative is using the exported_links provided.

Changes

• Use http method instead export_file because the first one has no file size limit.
• Minor Rubocop fixes.

Perfect! Working in a local environment for files smaller and larger than 10 MB! 💪
