Interferon Posted October 5 Posted October 5 (edited) We want to upload about 600 items into our Downloads system. Each item consists of: One 4 MB ZIP file One 16 MB ZIP file One 64 MB Zip file One PNG screenshot, approximately 500 KB What is the best way to achieve this? There are too many files to upload by hand, and the number will only increase in the future. Edited October 5 by Interferon
Solution Interferon Posted October 7 Author Solution Posted October 7 I was able to determine the answer to this. As far as I can tell, the web API will not work with desktop applications except under extremely limited circumstances, at least on my server. However, I was able to easily add files via a PHP script on our server using an API key, instead of the OAUTH desktop application.
Marc Posted October 7 Posted October 7 I'm not sure what you mean here by the web API not working with a desktop application. The API will actually not care what the source is, as long as its a source that is allowed (by this, I mean its not blocked in some way by having incorrect details, being banned etc)
Interferon Posted October 7 Author Posted October 7 Yes, I understand, but I am getting different results using libcurl and C++ vs. PHP. The other difference is I am using an OAUTH app with C++ and an API key with PHP. I don't think there is an error in the REST API, but there's some detail that needs to be worked out and I don't plan on going any further with it.
