Upload Files to a Web Server - Simplest TLS Example

See more Upload Examples

This is the simplest example for uploading some files to a web server using SSL/TLS. the BlockingUpload call is synchronous and returns when the upload is finished (or failed).

A server-side C# example showing how to receive an upload is located at C# ASP.NET Code to Receive Upload

import chilkat2

success = False

upload = chilkat2.Upload()

# Specify the page (ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, Python, Ruby, CGI, etc)
# that will receive and process the HTTPS Upload.
upload.Hostname = "www.mywebserver.com"
upload.Path = "/receiveUpload.aspx"

# Make sure to indicate that TLS is to be used, and the port should be
# 443 rather than 80.
upload.Ssl = True
upload.Port = 443

# Add one or more files to be uploaded.
upload.AddFileReference("file1","dude.gif")
upload.AddFileReference("file2","swordfish.xml")
upload.AddFileReference("file3","sample.doc")

# Do the upload.  The method returns when the upload
# is completed.
# This component also includes asynchronous upload capability,
# which is demonstrated in another example.
success = upload.BlockingUpload()
if (success != True):
    print(upload.LastErrorText)
else:
    print("Files uploaded!")
