Create folder Google Drive API with PHP - php

Question

recently I have set up an automatic file creation system on the google drive, I have integrated the API into my symfony application, I manage to authenticate myself, etc., but I do not block on the step of creation of the file.
I have this error that occurs:
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "insufficientPermissions",
"message": "Insufficient Permission: Request had insufficient authentication scopes."
}
],
"code": 403,
"message": "Insufficient Permission: Request had insufficient authentication scopes."
}
}
I do not really understand where this can come from knowing that I have set the scope indicated in the documentation: $client->addScope(Google_Service_Drive::DRIVE);
my function :
public function createFolder($name)
{
$client = $this->getClient();
// $client->setAuthConfig('code_secret_client.json');
$client->addScope(Google_Service_Drive::DRIVE);
$client->setAccessToken('ya29.a0AfH6SMDO-L_7Lp6YWbGtSqWdPHJKCNezQr8-RRgS8xslHInLApC9uxBJVVljPTKEBgR-iidqIorjNaBThU4-aPjuAth1aD7mzjJXn5n2xP1xPw40p_OLssC7Ttj8CpBJHuqsUm89CYWAGL8cCHGhQ2hBY0YjKQ');
$service = new Google_Service_Drive($client);
$folder = new Google_Service_Drive_DriveFile();
$folder->setName($name);
$folder->setMimeType('application/vnd.google-apps.folder');
$result = $service->files->create($folder);
dump($result);
return $result;
}
Do you have any ideas ?

Same error. Then I checked token.json, at "scope" it had readonly. I had deleted that token and requested again Make sure it has "See, edit, create, and delete all of your Google Drive files" option to select when giving perissions, and it will work.
this line was problem on createFolder.
