Hello, I m trying to integrate the Google Docs API in android with Google-API-java-client-1.6.0 for the first time in android, and i have integrate it successfully. I got the List of files from account, I can Create the file with metadata only, but i couldn't upload the file.

Actually i m trying to upload the PDF file that is of around 1.2 MB, I first send the initial POST request that give me response as 200 OK, but after that when i send first chunk of data with the same request i used for initial request just by changing the method as put and URL as the next location, i got the following error on request.execute().

Hi Kunal,

That is not exactly correct to change the initial request by changing the URL and the method. Please check our docs [1] as you need to set some headers too, e.g. X-Upload-Content-Type: application/pdf.

Please get back to us once you have done that if you are still having issues.

Regards

Though by building new put request and and setting the necessary headers values i m still getting the same Error as i have described previously.for more information please go through my code for uploading document as following:

static void uploadDocs() {
File sdcard = Environment.

getExternalStorageDirectory();
        File file = new File(sdcard.getAbsolutePath() + "/download/iridium.pdf");

        InputStream stream = null;
        HttpRequest request;
        try {
            stream = new FileInputStream(file);
            InputStreamContent streamContent = new InputStreamContent(
                    "application/pdf", stream);
            request = rf.buildPostRequest(DocsUrl.forCreate(), streamContent);

            GoogleHeaders headers = (GoogleHeaders) request.getHeaders();
            headers.setSlugFromFileName("iridium.pdf");
            headers.set("X-Upload-Content-Length", file.length());
            headers.set("X-Upload-Content-Type", "application/pdf");
            headers.setContentType("application/pdf");

            request.setHeaders(headers);
            HttpResponse response = request.execute();
            String upUrl = response.getHeaders().getLocation();

            headers=null;
            response = null;
            long i = 0, j = 0;
            while (i < file.length()) {
                j = i + 524287;
                DocsUrl objDocsUrl = DocsUrl.forUpload(upUrl);

                HttpRequest rptrequest = rf.buildPutRequest(objDocsUrl,
                        streamContent);
                headers = (GoogleHeaders)rptrequest.getHeaders();
                if (j > file.length()) {
                    headers.setRange(
                            "bytes " + String.valueOf(i) + "-"
                                    + String.valueOf(file.length()) + "/"
                                    + String.valueOf(file.length()));
                } else {
                    headers.setRange(
                            "bytes " + String.valueOf(i) + "-"
                                    + String.valueOf(j) + "/"
                                    + String.valueOf(file.length()));

                    i = j + 1;
                }
                headers.setSlugFromFileName("iridium.pdf");
                headers.set("X-Upload-Content-Type", "application/pdf");
                headers.setContentType("application/pdf");

                rptrequest.setHeaders(headers);
                response = rptrequest.execute();
                upUrl = response.getHeaders().getLocation();
                rptrequest = null;
                headers = null;
                response = null;
            }

        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
