Question

When I look via web I have four files in “shared with me” folder: file1, file2, file3, fil4. I don`t own them (I can write/reade only). I tried get them with file.list method with parameter
q = ‘not (myId) in owners’.
After that the results contain only one item of the four file1. When I do
q = ‘not (myId) in owners’ and title = ‘file2’
After that the results contain only one item file2. Somebody can tell me why? Or how to list them in other way?

UPDATE. After some time "q = not 'me' in owner" returns empty array (. Below result of "q = not 'me' in owners and title = 'File Name'"

Answer 1

It looks like now everything is all right. I can see all shared with me files with q = not ‘me’ in owners. So the answer is “google did some work with their google drive api” )

Thanks to all who helped me to understand that
