In setting up the Google Picker API I initially set it up to use this scope: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.metadata.readonly which listed 2 services as expected.

When updating the picker to use this scope instead: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly (which is less privileged), the picker is still listed it as having access to the previous.

How do I update this so that it uses the correct scope? It's not clear where it's being captured.

Turns out the user account that gave permission needs to revoke this access manually via the security tab of their Google account (beneath third party services).

In my case, I was using the one Google account, so it appeared to not be updating, but it actually was. It was just that my account continued to use the permissions I had initially granted (ie that more privileged scope)
