# Step 1: Create an upload session

# To begin a large file upload, your app must first request a new upload session. This creates a 
# temporary storage location where the bytes of the file will be saved until the complete file is uploaded. 
# Once the last byte of the file has been uploaded the upload session is completed and the final file is shown 
# in the destination folder.

# Send the following POST to create an upload session:
# If not using "me", then the path should be /v1.0/users/{id | userPrincipalName}/...
# POST /v1.0/users/{user_id}/drive/root:/{path_to_item}:/createUploadSession

# last fragment is uploaded.  (Note: This is a detail imposed by Microsoft's OneDrive server-side implementation.)
