Tcl Requires Chilkat v11.7.0+
Box: Upload a New Version of an Existing File

Run the reusable setup once per HttpCurl object, then select names and execute the operation. The setup is repeated here only to make this published example independently runnable. Resolve the existing file by name to create a new version. This preserves the file identity; uploading a new file with a duplicate name is not the same operation.
See the Box API guide for setup and the complete workflow.
