# First we want to initiate the resumable upload.
# We send a POST to get a session URI, which will be used to upload the file, and resume if needed.

# Our POST will look like this:

# POST https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=resumable HTTP/1.1
# Authorization: Bearer [YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN]          <-- Chilkat automatically adds this header because the AuthToken property was set.
# Content-Length: 38                               <-- Chilkat will automatically add this header.
# Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8    <-- This is the type of this POST, and is specified in the call to HttpJson.
# X-Upload-Content-Type: application/zip           <-- The type of file we'll be uploading
# X-Upload-Content-Length: 1366807                 <-- The size of the file we'll be uploading
# 
# {
#   "name": "myObject"

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The next step is to upload the file using the session URI:

# We'll send a PUT that looks like this:

# PUT https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=resumable&upload_id=xa298sd_sdlkj2 HTTP/1.1
# Content-Length: 1366807
# Content-Type: application/zip

# [BYTES 0-1366806]

# First remove the X-Upload-Content-Type and X-Upload-Content-Length request headers we specified earlier, so they don't get sent with subsequent requests.
