Fetching latest version of QVD from Google Drive

Hi,

I need to read a QVD stored in a Google Drive. The issue is that the Google Drive has multiple copies of the QVD (all same name). How do I fetch the one which is the latest one. In the example below, how do I fetch the highlighted QVD.

Thanks & Regards,

Bhaskar

Why not including the appropriate date/time information within the file-name? Because each method (and I assume there are ones) to read + check the meta-data will add an extra layer of complexity and therefore it should have a significantly added value against more simple approaches.
