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

Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();

//  If SharePoint Windows classic authentication is used, then set the
//  Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth properties.
http.Login = "SHAREPOINT_USERNAME";
http.Password = "SHAREPOINT_PASSWORD";
http.LoginDomain = "SHAREPOINT_NTLM_DOMAIN";
http.NtlmAuth = true;

//  The more common case is to use SharePoint Online authentication (via the SPOIDCRL cookie).
//  If so, do not set Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth, and instead
//  establish the cookie as shown at SharePoint Online Authentication

//  This example will both move and rename /Documents/starfish.jpg to /Documents/ChilkatTest/starfish2.jpg

req.HttpVerb = "POST";
req.Path = "/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/Documents/starfish.jpg')/MoveTo(newurl='/Documents/ChilkatTest/starfish2.jpg',flags=1)";

//  We need to add a form digest value in the X-RequestDigest header field.
//  See this example for details on
//  how to get (and cache) a form digest value
req.AddHeader("X-RequestDigest","SHAREPOINT_FORM_DIGEST");

//  Send the HTTPS POST.

//  If failed, the response body contains XML
