Upload a File to a SharePoint Documents Library using HttpCurl

This example shows how to use Chilkat's HttpCurl class to upload a local file to the root of a SharePoint Documents document library. The example uses Microsoft Graph to automatically resolve the SharePoint site name to a site ID, find the drive ID for the Documents library, and then upload helloChilkat.txt so it is stored in SharePoint as example.txt. A successful upload returns 201 Created when a new file is created, or 200 OK when an existing file is updated or replaced.

' This example uploads a local file to the root of a SharePoint
' Documents document library.
' 
' The local file:
' 
'   qa_data/helloChilkat.txt
' 
' is uploaded and stored in SharePoint as:
' 
'   example.txt
' 
' The example demonstrates how HttpCurl automatically resolves:
' 
'   site_name  -> site_id
'   site_id    -> document_library_id
' 
' and then uploads the file to the target document library using
' the Microsoft Graph file upload API.
