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

* --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Note: The code for setting up the Chilkat REST object and making the initial connection can be done once.
* Once connected, the REST object may be re-used for many REST API calls.
* (It's a good idea to put the connection setup code in a separate function/subroutine.)
* --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* It is assumed we previously obtained an OAuth2 access token.
* This example loads the JSON access token file 
* saved by this example: Get Google Contacts OAuth2 Access Token

loJsonToken = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
lnSuccess = loJsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googleContacts.json")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? "Failed to load googleContacts.json"

    CANCEL
ENDIF

loGAuth = CreateObject('Chilkat.AuthGoogle')
loGAuth.AccessToken = loJsonToken.StringOf("access_token")

loRest = CreateObject('Chilkat.Rest')

* Connect using TLS.
lnBAutoReconnect = 1
lnSuccess = loRest.Connect("www.google.com",443,1,lnBAutoReconnect)

* Provide the authentication credentials (i.e. the access token)
loRest.SetAuthGoogle(loGAuth)

* ----------------------------------------------
* OK, the REST connection setup is completed..

* To update a contact, we'll first get the contact information,
* then we'll make changes to the XML and then PUT the update.

* To retrieve the contact, send the following:
* 	GET /m8/feeds/contacts/default/full/{contactId}
* 	GData-Version: 3.0

loRest.AddHeader("GData-Version","3.0")

loSbPath = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
loSbPath.Append("/m8/feeds/contacts/default/full/{contactId}")
* Get the contact having contactId = "5b6d64980b1ed462"

* Get the etag:

? "lastKnownEtag = " + lcLastKnownEtag

* Update the XML.
* We're going to add or update with the following information:

* 	  <gd:name>
* 	    <gd:givenName>Joe</gd:givenName>
* 	    <gd:familyName>Sample</gd:familyName>
* 	    <gd:fullName>Joe Sample</gd:fullName>

loXml.UpdateAttrAt("gd:extendedProperty",1,"name","pet")

* 	If-Match: {lastKnownEtag}
* 	GData-Version: 3.0
* 	Content-Type: application/atom+xml
