HTTPS Upload Files to Web Server using SSL

This example shows how to upload one or more files over SSL (HTTPS) to a web server.

Download Chilkat HTTP ActiveX

CREATE PROCEDURE ChilkatSample

BEGIN
    DECLARE @hr int
    DECLARE @sTmp0 nvarchar(4000)

    --  The URL we'll be posting to is:

    --  Therefore, the path part of the URL is:

    --  Note: You'll need to edit this example to upload to your
    --  own web server.

    --  Add some files to the request:
    --  The 1st argument is an arbitrary name.  It's the POST form field name.
    --  The 2nd argument is the filename currently existing on
    --  the local filesystem.  It may include an absolute or relative
    --  path, or no path at all if it's in the current working directory.
    EXEC sp_OAMethod @req, 'AddFileForUpload', @success OUT, 'file1', 'hamlet.xml'

    --  Send the HTTPS POST and get the response.  Note: This is a blocking call.
    --  The method does not return until the full HTTPS response is received.

    DECLARE @port int

    DECLARE @ssl int

    SELECT @domain = 'www.yourwebserver123abc.com'
    --  The only difference in coding between non-SSL and SSL is
    --  the setting of these two arguments to SynchronousRequest:
    SELECT @port = 443
    SELECT @ssl = 1
    DECLARE @resp int
