Getting an upload error - not sure why
I recently ran into the issue of the long lived tokens no longer working, so I needed to upgrade to the latest API and change the access. I am now running into an exception uploading content.
My old upload code was this (and nested other uploads if the first was successful), but this API was no longer present.
DBFILESWriteMode* mode = [[DBFILESWriteMode alloc]initWithOverwrite];
[[self.restClient.filesRoutes uploadData:@"/ServiceReport.sqlite"
mode:mode
autorename: NULL
clientModified:NULL
mute:NULL
inputData:sqllite]setResponseBlock:^(DBFILESFileMetadata * _Nullable result , DBFILESUploadError * _Nullable routeError, DBRequestError * _Nullable error) {
//repeat for each file to upload......
}];
So I replaced with what seemed like the correct replacement:
[[self.restClient.filesRoutes uploadData: @"/ServiceReport.sqlite"inputData:sqllite] setResponseBlock:^(DBFILESFileMetadata * _Nullable result , DBFILESUploadError * _Nullable routeError, DBRequestError * _Nullable error) {
//repeat for each file to upload
}];
But when I try this, I am getting the following error...
I am not really sure what to try next... it seems my download to restore is working just fine, it's the upload that is failing.
Thank you for any pointers.

Hi purringpigeon,
Where you have set the mode to overwrite (as in first version)? 🤔 If missing, the behaviour is normal when file with the same name already exists. 😉
Hope this gives direction.
- How do I set the mode? I don’t see the option on the new API.

Something that's missing in you second code snippet! This part is nothing to do with the change of access token way of work. 😉
- When I had it with mode it complained the API was not correct. I’ll try again. I’m not sure why it failed. But my old call was not compiling.

purringpigeon Здравко is correct, you should use the "mode" option to control this behavior. That's still available in the latest version of the SDK, as seen here. I recommend using Xcode's autocomplete feature to automatically template out the parameters.
When I revert to the code I have above I get the following compile error:
No visible @interface for 'DBFILESUserAuthRoutes' declares the selector 'uploadData:mode:autorename:clientModified:mute:inputData:'
I found it - they added properties to it.
propertyGroups:NULL strictConflict:NULL contentHash:NULLI am trying that.
