*  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
*  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

*  This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
*  scope "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform"

*  In this example, Get Google Cloud Storage OAuth2 Access Token, 
*  the service account access token was saved to a text file.  This example fetches the access token from the file..
loSbToken = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
loSbToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googleCloudStorageAccessToken.txt","utf-8")

*  Send a POST equivalent to this curl command.
*  The content of the file is contained in the request body.

*  curl -X POST --data-binary @[OBJECT] \
*      -H "Authorization: Bearer [OAUTH2_TOKEN]" \
*      -H "Content-Type: [OBJECT_CONTENT_TYPE]" \
*      "https://www.googleapis.com/upload/storage/v1/b/[BUCKET_NAME]/o?uploadType=media&name=[OBJECT_NAME]"

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')
loHttp.AuthToken = loSbToken.GetAsString()

*  Create an XML document, and write it to a StringBuilder.
*  We'll be uploading this XML document.
loXml = CreateObject('Chilkat.Xml')
loXml.Tag = "note"
loXml.UpdateChildContent("to","Tove")
loXml.UpdateChildContent("from","Jani")
loXml.UpdateChildContent("heading","Reminder")
loXml.UpdateChildContent("body","Don't forget me this weekend!")

*  Write the XML to sbXml.
loSbXml = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
loXml.GetXmlSb(loSbXml)

*  sbXml contains this:

*  <note>
*      <to>Tove</to>
*      <from>Jani</from>
*      <heading>Reminder</heading>
*      <body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body>
*  </note>

*  Construct a URL to upload to an object named "test.xml" in the "chilkat-ocean" bucket.

loHttp.SetUrlVar("object_name","test.xml")
