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

' Get the previously obtained access token.
' See Get Google Photos Access Token.

Dim jsonToken As New Chilkat.JsonObject
Dim success As Boolean = jsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googlePhotos.json")

    Exit Sub
End If


Dim http As New Chilkat.Http

http.AuthToken = jsonToken.StringOf("access_token")

' For more information, see Google Photos Upload Media REST API Documentation

' Build a JSON body that looks like this:
' {
'   "albumId": "ALBUM_ID",
'   "newMediaItems": [
'     {
'       "description": "ITEM_DESCRIPTION",
'       "simpleMediaItem": {

'       }
'     }
'    , ...
'   ]
' }

' Use this online tool to generate the code from sample JSON: 
' Generate Code to Create JSON

' Build the above JSON:
Dim json As New Chilkat.JsonObject
json.UpdateString("albumId","ALBUM_ID")
json.UpdateString("newMediaItems[0].description","Photo of Penguins")
json.UpdateString("newMediaItems[0].simpleMediaItem.uploadToken","UPLOAD_TOKEN")

    Exit Sub

' Examine the response status code.  Success is indicated by a status code of 200.
