(SQL Server) Google Drive - Upload File

See more Google Drive Examples

This example demonstrates how to upload a file to Google Drive. The assumption is that the file can be loaded into memory and uploaded. It is also possible to stream large files to Google Drive, but the code required is a little more complex.
