I want to create SVG drawings for Google Drawings using Python, generating them in the browser and then uploading them into Google Docs. I see the Google Docs List API (3.0) supports importing files and then uploading them into entries with the ResumableUploader, but I was thinking of creating images in the browser with the svg-edit library. Does anyone know how to upload SVG drawings to google docs directly from the browser to Google Docs? Thanks in advance!

You can. You just have to generate the right POST request. This can probably be done with Javascript. See: How do you create a document in Google Docs programmatically?

  • Thanks for the advice! My server code is in Python, so I'd prefer to not convert into Javascript. I've been working with google's [urlfetch.fetch](http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/urlfetch/fetchfunction.html), but now I'm getting a 401 error. I'm using oauth2 for security so I'm sending the oauth token's access token to href = https://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full/drawing%{id}. Can you tell what the problem is from that, or what other information should I post? (the 500 character limit is curtailing me from putting up everything at once). – Bryan_Ransil Mar 05 '12 at 19:01
