Hello,  
I’ve embed google drive videos using the video component.  
I want to give limited view access to that video.

When the user signing in from google, if the logged-in mail id having access of that google drive file, then only they can watch that video.

My Use Case:  
One of my client having online classes. We’re delivering lectures to users from google drive viewer access. So that they can’t able to download file. As of now they can watch from Google Drive App. But if embed video in glide can help me out then it’ll be good.

I don’t think you can do this, unless you ask them to open it as a link. From my experience helping people on here, images/videos from Google Drive must be publicly shared for it to work.

Other people who can chime in with this isssue or correct me feel free to do so.
