Download files to google drive

logo
This app uses Google Drive APIs to upload files to authorized Google DriveTM. What the app essentially does is stream the file through the hosted server to the Google Driver server. So the file gets to your Drive without using your network bandwidth.
But beware, the hosting platform's bandwidth is used, which may incur billings.

Heroku

Heroku is kind of the best candidate in that case. Heroku's policy guidelines defines a limit on bandwidth which is more than any individual might need.

Network Bandwidth: 2TB/month - Soft

Since no database or addons are required, this project can be hosted for free in heroku.

Google Cloud Platform

Since the app requires Google OAuth to work, it is obvious that you require a GCP account.
The GCP requirements for the project can be covered for free as long as you stay inside the limits that they have specified.
