Send XML REST Request, Get Response with No Body (Google Cloud Storage)

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates sending a RESTful XML request, and receiving a response where the expected response is a header with no body (Content-Length = 0). This example will create a bucket in Google Cloud Storage using the Google Cloud Storage XML API.

See Create a Bucket using the XML API for additional request options.

// This example will create a bucket in Google Cloud Storage using the XML API.

// It requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

let g_auth = chilkat::AuthGoogle::new();

// See Get Access Token using a Service Account JSON Key
// See Get Access Token using a P12 File

// Provide the authentication credentials (i.e. the access key)
let _ = rest.set_auth_google(&g_auth).is_ok();

// Build the XML request body for creating a bucket.
// See https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/xml-api/put-bucket-create

// the domain previously passed to the Connect method.
