[Java SDK V2] What happend to forgotten partially uploaded files?
Let's assume that I start uploading some files do Dropbox via Java SDK v2 by command like this
sessionId = tested.files().uploadSessionStart()
.uploadAndFinish(in, CHUNKED_UPLOAD_CHUNK_SIZE)
.getSessionId();
dbxCliend.files().uploadSessionAppendV2(cursor)
.uploadAndFinish(in, CHUNKED_UPLOAD_CHUNK_SIZE)
But then I will never finish the upload due to an application error, shutdown or any other reason like this.
What happens to the partially uploaded files? Will they somehow affect the ammount of the available space in my Dropbox repository? Will these unfinished file parts be cleaned after some time? How long will they be available?
The partially uploaded files do not count against the user's quota. The data is cleaned up after the upload session expires, which I believe is 48 hours after it was created.
