Service account not allowing to see files and folders

[ncw (Nick Craig-Wood)]

The best thing I can come up with is that you should be able to make a shared folder and share it with the SA's email address. That should work for letting the SA have read-access, but AFAIK you can't do any write-access like that.

I tried it and it does work for both read and write access

We should probably write this up in the docs, because using a service account and --drive-root-folder-id is a nice way of narrowing down the access for a given rclone config.
