//  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.)

//  This example loads the JSON access token file 
//  saved by this example: Get Google Contacts OAuth2 Access Token
