I believe the entry point for the glue code between LO and libcmis is
,
but please do consider the points from Cloph in this thread, this
approach may not be as useful as you would first think.

However since the changes in authentication imposed by google, libcmis
is merely used for the purpose of having a unified model across
different online services. Authentication is handled by LO now, and
that will have to change again since Google will fade out and
ultimately disable the copy'n'paste method.

TDF didn't apply for the advanced privileges yet (never would be
approved with the copy'n'paste method), so access is limited to files
you create with LibreOffice/are explicitly shared with LibreOffice.

Yep, most definitely not :-)

LibreOffice depends on libcmis from  to
integrate with google drive.

I bet VS Code is not using libcmis.

Google Drive iIntegration

[John Casagrande]

I am trying to understand what libraries or code is used to integrate my Google 
Online account, Google Drive folders, in the File Open menu of Writer.

I am using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Desktop version. 

I am unclear on why some apps show the Network shares like OWriter, while 
others like VScode do not. Is this configuration issue or an underlying lack of 
feature inclusion in VS Code?

Thanks
