(VBScript) OneDrive -- Upload Large Files with an Upload Session

See more OneDrive Examples

Demonstrates how to upload large files with an upload session. See OneDrive Upload Session for more general information.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.97 or greater.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows

Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Create a Unicode (utf-16) output text file.
Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

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

' This example uses the OAuth client credentials flow.
' See How to Create an Azure App Registration for OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials

' Use your client ID, client secret, and tenant ID in the following lines
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject")
set json = CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonObject")
success = json.UpdateString("client_id","2871da2c-8176-4b7f-869b-2311aa82e743")
success = json.UpdateString("client_secret","2hu9Q~r5QuryUcEkNbg1btLtnfU1VUXzhSCG6brH")
success = json.UpdateString("scope","https://graph.microsoft.com/.default")
success = json.UpdateString("token_endpoint","https://login.microsoftonline.com/114d7ed6-71bf-4dbe-a866-748364121bf2/oauth2/v2.0/token")

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Http")

' 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

success = http.SetUrlVar("path_to_item","/somefolder/big.zip")
success = http.SetUrlVar("user_id","4fe732c3-322e-4a6b-b729-2fd1eb5c6104")
url = "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{$user_id}/drive/root:/{$path_to_item}:/createUploadSession"
' resp is a Chilkat.HttpResponse
Set resp = http.PostJson2(url,"application/json","{}")
If (http.LastMethodSuccess <> 1) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

' If successful, a 200 status code is returned, with the session details (in JSON format).
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject")
set jsonSession = CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonObject")
jsonSession.EmitCompact = 0
success = jsonSession.Load(resp.BodyStr)

If (resp.StatusCode <> 200) Then

    outFile.WriteLine(jsonSession.Emit())
    outFile.WriteLine("Response status = " & resp.StatusCode)

    WScript.Quit
End If

outFile.WriteLine(jsonSession.Emit())

' Step 2: Upload Data in Segments (a.k.a. Fragments or Chunks)

' Microsoft states this requirement: Use a fragment size that is a multiple of 320 KiB (320 * 1024 bytes). 
' Failing to use a fragment size that is a multiple of 320 KiB can result in large file transfers failing after the 
' last fragment is uploaded.  (Note: This is a detail imposed by Microsoft's OneDrive server-side implementation.)

fragSize = 320 * 1024

' Upload the file big.zip in 320KiB segments.
' Note: The FileSize method returns a signed 32-bit integer.  If the file is potentially larger than 2GB, call FileSizeStr instead to return
' the size of the file as a string, then convert to an integer value.
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.FileAccess")
