I'm trying to upload an xml file that located on my server to Dropbox.
Session["AccessToken"] = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
if (Session["AccessToken"] == null)
{
Response.Write("Error. Access token not found.<br /><a href=\"/\">Try again</a>.");
return;
}
var token = Session["AccessToken"].ToString();
string serverPath = "/" + System.IO.Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.FileName);
// you can upload to any folder:
// serverPath = "/folder_name/" + System.IO.Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.FileName);
// folder_name - should exist in dropbox
var fileInfo = UniValue.Empty;
fileInfo["path"] = serverPath;
fileInfo["mode"] = "overwrite";
fileInfo["autorename"] = true;
fileInfo["mute"] = false;
var result = OAuthUtility.Post
(
"https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/upload",
new HttpParameterCollection
{
{ FileUpload1.PostedFile }
},
headers: new NameValueCollection { { "Dropbox-API-Arg", fileInfo.ToString() } },
contentType: "application/octet-stream",
authorization: String.Format("Bearer {0}", token)
);
the code above works perfectly if I use the FileUpload control. but in my case, I want to upload the file that is located in my server e.g. "https://www.example.com/file.xml" into my dropbox.. I tried to use the file upload control and assign the value into the control, but I found out that I can't do it because of the web browser security. the problem exactly at ( FileUpload1.PostedFile ) .. how can I use the PostedFile property without using the FileUpload control ? Is there anyway to go around this ? thanks in advance.
