// It requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.AuthGoogle gAuth = new Chilkat.AuthGoogle();
gAuth.Scope = "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive";

// See Get Access Token using a Service Account JSON Key
// See Get Access Token using a P12 File

// A multipart upload to Google Drive needs a multipart/related Content-Type

// The 1st part is JSON with information about the file.

// The 2nd part is the file content.
// In this case, we'll upload a simple text file containing "Hello World!"
