I want to get access to the files in the Google Drive&#39;s &quot;Shared with me&quot; directory.

In the Colab python notebook the following commands:

    import os
    from google.colab import drive
    drive.mount(&#39;/content/drive&#39;)
    !ls &quot;/content/drive/My Drive&quot;

work well for &quot;My Drive&quot; directory however

    !ls &quot;/content/drive/My Drive&quot;

fails with

&gt; FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:

I am aware of the fact that I can add the folder to my drive manually and proceed ([as mentioned in here][1]), but I would like to have direct access to the shared folders for lets say I might need to automate the work with files that are shared with me real time.

I am also aware that same/similar problem exist with other cloud platforms like &quot;OneDrive&quot;.

The questions are:

 1. if there is no straightforward way of doing it, is there at least a
    workaround?
 2. do the people I share my code with get access to my drive too?
