title: How to move files and folders using google drive API?
body: <p>I am trying to use Google drive API to carry out simple tasks like</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Moving files across folders. </li>
  <li>List item</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Moving folders.</p>
  
  <p>As far as I could find Google drive API does not provide a way to move files across folders. </p>
  
  <p>With /parent and /children API parent folder of a file can be specified but it does not work for a folder. Moreover the parent attribute associated with a file does not move it under that folder. It just associates a parent attribute with the file(which is not at all useful for my case)</p>
