Google Drive API using Service Account in python not showing up folders that are shared to me

The output only shows the google docs I own which I have shared with others, but not the ones I am shared to. How can I see the folder structure and files shared to me ?

I am using my corporate Gmail account. Google service account is used.

Codes below.

from __future__ import print_function
import pickle
import os.path
from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from google_auth_oauthlib.flow import InstalledAppFlow
from google.auth.transport.requests import Request

# https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/config/mgmt/v3/quickstart/service-py
from apiclient.discovery import build
from oauth2client.service_account import ServiceAccountCredentials

scope = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive']

credentials = ServiceAccountCredentials.from_json_keyfile_name('creds.json' % path, scope)

# https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/quickstart/python
service = build('drive', 'v3', credentials=credentials)

# Call the Drive v3 API
results = service.files().list(
    pageSize=10, fields="nextPageToken, files(id, name)").execute()
items = results.get('files', [])

if not items:
    print('No files found.')
else:
    print('Files:')
    for item in items:
        print(u'{0} ({1})'.format(item['name'], item['id']))

'''The file token.pickle stores the user's access and refresh tokens, and is created automatically when the authorization flow completes for the first time.'''

def upload(name,id):
    creds = None
    

    if os.path.exists('token.pickle'):
        with open('token.pickle', 'rb') as token:
            creds = pickle.load(token)
    # If there are no (valid) credentials available, let the user log in.
    if not creds or not creds.valid:
        if creds and creds.expired and creds.refresh_token:
            creds.refresh(Request())
        else:
            file = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'credentials.json')
            flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file(
