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

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Http')
$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");
$http->AuthToken = 'GMAIL-ACCESS-TOKEN';

$userId = 'me';
$http->SetUrlVar('userId',$userId);

// Create the JSON to be sent in the HTTP request body.
// The name of the new label is "questions".
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
$json = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$json->UpdateString('name','questions');
$json->UpdateString('labelListVisibility','labelShow');
$json->UpdateString('messageListVisibility','show');

$json->EmitCompact = 0;
print $json->emit() . "\n";

// The JSON contains this:
// {
//   "name": "questions",
//   "labelListVisibility": "labelShow",
//   "messageListVisibility": "show"
// }

$url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/{$userId}/labels';
// resp is a Chilkat.HttpResponse

// A 200 response status indicate success.

    print 'Failed.' . "\n";

    exit;

// A successful repsonse contains JSON that looks like this:

// {
