Authentication required. To view the items in this folder, you need to authenticate in the Google Drive app....

In the Files app, I have set up my Google Drive app as locations that Files can access for document use/editing/etc. Now when I try to access the files in these locations, I receive that says, “Authentication Required. To view the items in this folder, you need to authenticate in the Google Drive app.” I tried several ways to solve (like turning privacy screen on and off) but they didn’t work

iPad, iPadOS 14

I have the same issue. There is no “privacy screen” option in Google Drive.
