Hi i'm currently attempting to create a kodi build. I'm using Gdrive and .strm files. One thing that hasn't crossed my mind is how i'd add then update new content to kodi when added to gdrive. Because i'll be setting this up on several devices it would be long winded to export any new media across every device. Would there be a way to automatically update new content on Kodi when added to gdrive?

As has already been told, if you look around the internet most of the references you will see relating to Kodi and builds are for piracy.
Sadly human nature is to want things for free, even when a little common sense will say that getting something that should be paid for but is being touted for free cannot be legal and/or legitimate. Hence there are all too many people out there who will try to fulfil this "need", except in many cases they may also sneak in other stuff that the user most definitely will not want (think malware and suchlike), either into the build itself or into the web page hosting it.
You are entirely correct that the fundamental meaning of "build" is legitimate, but unfortunately it has been taken over and subverted into something altogether darker. And if you have a look through the threads in the garbage section of this forum, you will see quite how strong the correlation between the word build and piracy is amongst some of our newbie members (and occasionally some who should know better).
