title	Obtaining a Google Client API ID (optional)

RClone provides a client_id that is shared by all users. Considering Google limits the number of transactions per second, you may receive the following errors message.

googleapi: Error 403: Rate Limit Exceeded, rateLimitExceeded

At least one user encountered this error while creating a google drive remote.

If you plan on transferring data back and forth between Sol and Google Drive, you might want to get your own Client ID and use it below. The following is description provided at https://rclone.org/drive/#making-your-own-client-id

Log into the Google API Console with your Google account. It doesn't matter what Google account you use. (It need not be the same account as the Google Drive you want to access)
Select a project or create a new project.
Under "ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES" search for "Drive", and enable the "Google Drive API".
Click "Credentials" in the left-side panel (not "Create credentials", which opens the wizard), then "Create credentials"
If you already configured an "Oauth Consent Screen", then skip to the next step; if not, click on "CONFIGURE CONSENT SCREEN" button (near the top right corner of the right panel), then select "External" and click on "CREATE"; on the next screen, enter an "Application name" ("rclone" is OK) then click on "Save" (all other data is optional). Click again on "Credentials" on the left panel to go back to the "Credentials" screen.
Click on the "+ CREATE CREDENTIALS" button at the top of the screen, then select "OAuth client ID".
Choose an application type of "Desktop app" if you using a Google account or "Other" if you using a GSuite account and click "Create". (the default name is fine)
It will show you a client ID and client secret. Use these values in rclone config to add a new remote or edit an existing remote.
