(JavaScript) Create GMail Draft
Demonstrates how to create a new GMail draft email.
var success = false;
// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
// Use the Chilkat Email API to create or load an email.
var email = new CkEmail();
email.Subject = "This is a test GMail email created using Chilkat.";
email.Charset = "utf-8";
email.AddPlainTextAlternativeBody("This is a test");
email.AddHtmlAlternativeBody("<html><body><p>This is a <b>test</b></body></html>");
// We'll need to get the full MIME of the email encoded to a base64url string.
var sbMime = new CkStringBuilder();
email.GetMimeSb(sbMime);
sbMime.Encode("base64url","utf-8");
// The body of the HTTP request will be JSON..
var json = new CkJsonObject();
json.UpdateSb("message.raw",sbMime);
// Upload the email to GMail as a draft.
var http = new CkHttp();
http.AuthToken = "GMAIL-ACCESS-TOKEN";
var url = "https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me/drafts";
var resp = new CkHttpResponse();
success = http.HttpJson("POST",url,json,"application/json",resp);
if (success == false) {
console.log(http.LastErrorText);
return;
}
// A status code of 200 indicates success.
console.log("Response status code: " + resp.StatusCode);
console.log("Response body:");
console.log(resp.BodyStr);
// The response body contains JSON.
// Use the online tool at Generate JSON Parsing Code
// to generate JSON parsing code.
// A sample successful JSON response:
// {
// "id": "r-2607584557788895307",
// "message": {
// "id": "166f09932c662e93",
// "threadId": "166f09932c662e93",
// "labelIds": [
