Hello, in the Qlik Connectors > Google Drive [1] documentation, it is stated that "If your connection has an expiration date, we recommend that you set a calendar reminder to update your authentication token before it expires". This means that most probably your token was expired and thus you are getting this error message. To generate a new token, you will have to reauthenticate the connection. On the left panel you should see Authentication Token with a Clear button. If you click on that button, you will get a new button that says Authenticate. After that click on the button and you will have to login to your Google Drive where you will get in response a new token. Use that token to paste it for authentication and you should be good to go.

 

I hope that this information was helpful
