upload file to dropBox using /files_put javascript

Question

Is it possible to upload a local file to dropbox using http put method ? i am uploading a file but it is without body ? ( \"bytes\": 0 )

how can i add a content

Answer 1

I don't see anywhere in your HTTP call where you're actually passing a body. It seems like you're making an empty PUT request?

(Or maybe there's just something here about AngularJS that I don't understand, and you're adding a body somewhere else?)

Answer 2

@smarx : i was making an empty HTTP PUT request, and i ended up by solving my issue this way:

$scope.uploadHtmlFile = function() {
    var data = "This is a file upload test ";

    $http({
        method: 'PUT',
        url: 'https://api-content.dropbox.com/1/files_put/dropbox/test.html?access_token=' + localStorage.getItem('accessToken'),
        data: data
    }).success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        console.log(data);
        console.log('file uploaded successfully');
    }).error(function(data, status, headers, config) {

    });
}

thanks for your feedback !
