How to combine query strings in google drive API python

I am using some python code to list all the files in a folder. I also do not want deleted or trashed files to be listed. I know both queries for this but I am unsure about how to combine them

response = service.files().list(q = "'"+str(folderId)+"' in parents").execute()

Is my current method, folderId being the folder that will have its files listed.

I know that the queries for "search in folder" and "not deleted" are:
"'<folderid>' in parents"
"trashed = false"

I have tried combining with ; , and + and cannot find the correct way to combine them online anywhere else. I'm sure it's simple and someone can help me out. Thanks!

You need and operator to combine multiple filters in a query string

Try this

query = "parents in '%s' and trashed = false" % folderId
response = service.files().list(q = query).execute()
