Hi sanathdevadiga,

It's great you have realized the authentication already. Just a warning here. You've mentioned access token only, but nothing about refresh token! Take in mind that access token expire after some time (typical 4 hours). For long term access, you need refresh token and realizing refresh process. You can get some ideas here (if you haven't implemented it yet).

File request is a way to give opportunity for somebody else to upload content, not to upload it by self! 😉

It's easy. The name can leads you: 2/files/upload. Just  mentioned call is suitable in many cases for no very huge files (no more than 150MB in size). If you have huge file or if you have big number of files (either small or big sized, or mixture), it may be mandatory (or better in some cases) usage of upload session and/or upload in batch. Review all calls listed after the simple upload call and select what best matches your needs. Of course, you can always start with just simple uploads and optimize your code after that. 😉

Hope this helps.
