If you want your bot to upload every pictures on a group conversation (not only those sent to it), turn off the privacy mode with talking to @botfather

• Follow https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/quickstart/python steps to create a credential file
• Rename the downloaded file client_secrets.json and put it at the root folder
• Change ggd_folder in the config.json and give the folder where you want to put every photos

** WARNING **: do not update the template file config.json.template, as you risk to commit your secret

Now you can start the bot with python3 botTG.py. Please note that the first time a photo will be uploaded, you will have to login to google. Your credentials will be saved for the next time in creds.txt and the login will be automatic.
