I still need to do some testing and fiddle with a few things, but here's what I've got so far, authentication is handled in a different handler, the access token is passed as a parameter: command dropBoxUploader pAccessToken local tMyFolder = "/Downloads" local tMyFileShortFilename = "abc.mp

I'm not sure how this would work in your context, but one way to break up a file into pieces is to use open / read / close like this: # assumes LC 9.0.2 # tMyFolder = path of folder containing the file to upload # tMyFileShortFilename = 'short' filename of file to upload - no path, j

Hey pink Yes, you are just going to put 150MB at a time into the pData parameter and ship it. I have not uploaded any binary files, just encoded text files, so you may have to fiddle with encoding to make sure you don't get into any trouble. You should be able to open/read the files using put url "

Hey, pink, thanks for the clarification. First of all, is there a reason why you are doing it this way instead of using dropboxUpload? If you use dropboxUpload you can do it all in one shot. Gerard's stack explains the process and how to use the various commands Doing it the way you are doing it,
