// Note: The application does not need to explicitly set the following
// headers: Content-Length, x-ms-date, Authorization.  These headers
// are automatically set by Chilkat.

// Note: The above code does not need to be repeatedly called for each REST request.
// The rest object can be setup once, and then many requests can be sent.  Chilkat will automatically
// reconnect within a FullRequest* method as needed.  It is only the very first connection that is explicitly
// made via the Connect method.

// Use this online tool to generate code from sample JSON:
// Generate Code to Create JSON

// The following JSON is sent in the request body.
