Upload file to skydrive through SkyDrive API

Question

I try to upload a text file to my skydrive or at least create new text file in SD and edit it\'s content, through SkyDrive API in my Windows 8 application. How can I do that

Answer 1

Here's another way to upload a file from a console application using a SkyDriveApiClient downloaded from http://skydriveapiclient.codeplex.com/releases/view/103081

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var client = new SkyDriveServiceClient();

        client.LogOn("YourEmail@hotmail.com", "password");
        WebFolderInfo wfInfo = new WebFolderInfo();

        WebFolderInfo[] wfInfoArray = client.ListRootWebFolders();

        wfInfo = wfInfoArray[0];
        client.Timeout = 1000000000;

        string fn = @"test.txt";
        if (File.Exists(fn))
        {
            client.UploadWebFile(fn, wfInfo);
        }

    }

You should use the Upload method on LiveConnectionClient. For example, see the Uploading Files example in the Live SDK. Something like ...

LiveOperationResult fileOperationResult =
     await client.Upload("me/skydrive", /*file name here*/, /*file stream here*/);

Close but as I wrote: I can't use client.upload method because LiveConnectClient class doesn't contain it. That's why I asked about site content update.

Anyway - I've got an answer:

//create a StorageFile (here is one way to do that if it is stored in your ApplicationData)
StorageFile file = awaitApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFileAsync("yourfilename.txt");

try {
   client = new LiveConnectClient(session);
   LiveOperationResult operationResult = await client.BackgroundUploadAsync("me/skydrive", file.Name, file, OverwriteOption.Overwrite);
}
catch (LiveConnectException exception) {
  //handle exception                
}
