Google Drive vs Pantry

Google Drive's API lets applications create, read, update, and share files and folders stored in a user's Drive, with fine-grained OAuth scopes for personal or Workspace accounts. A live GET against the real gateway, www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files, returned a 403 without a token, reconfirming OAuth 2.0 auth over HTTPS, and a follow-up OPTIONS preflight echoed the request Origin in Access-Control-Allow-Origin, resolving cors from unknown to yes. The url was updated to Google's current Workspace documentation hub, which the old /drive/ path now permanently redirects to. Personal accounts get 15GB free, with paid Google One and Workspace plans raising the storage cap.

Pantry is a free JSON storage service for small projects and prototypes: each Pantry is a namespaced bucket identified by an ID in the URL path, holding arbitrary JSON "baskets" read and written over a plain REST API. A live GET and OPTIONS preflight with an Origin header against the real host, getpantry.cloud/apiv1/pantry/, both returned Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, reconfirming cors as yes; no API key is required (the Pantry ID itself is the access credential), and HTTPS was reconfirmed. The service is entirely free with no paid tier.
