Selected Answer: C

I vote 'C' option. I tried to actually use the Drive API to update a nested folder's permission in a Shared drive and got this error. With this, I would eliminate option 'A' & 'B'. And pick 'C' as the best answer for this scenario. { "error": { "errors": [ { "domain": "global", "reason": "cannotModifyInheritedTeamDrivePermission", "message": "Cannot update or delete an inherited permission on a shared drive item." } ], "code": 403, "message": "Cannot update or delete an inherited permission on a shared drive item." } }

This question is outdated, C was the right choice, but now you can change subfolder permissions in any Team Drive

You cannot make Team Drives subfolders more or less restrictive than the top level folder. https://support.google.com/drive/thread/25570677?hl=en nwk is right

according to this link [https://support.google.com/a/answer/7662202?hl=en#zippy=%2Cmoving-and-sharing-files%2Chow-to-use-folder-sharing%2Chow-does-the-sharing-experience-work%2Cwho-can-share-folders%2Cset-file-sharing-permissions] you CAN set permission at a folder and file level. So A or B are viable options. Also, this link [https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/manage-sharing] shows that the Drive API does support file and folder sharing. So I would select B as this option meets the requirements. Option C is a workaround

Typo, I would select A, not B as its better to manage permission at a folder level than a file level.
