[Python V2] How to do batch upload?

Hi!  I am trying to upload several files using the sessions and batch operators in the Dropbox SDK for Python. I'm trying to do something like this:  dbx = dropbox.Dropbox(<API KEY>) commit_info...

Thank you for the reply Greg. I did stumble on that post.

I should of been more specific with my question - 

If I have 20 files that I want uploaded in a single session, using "dbx.files_upload_session_finish_batch()" and "dbx.files_upload_session_append_v2()" for files exceeding the set chunk size, how would I go about doing so?

The example you posted here works great without using "files_upload_session_append_v2" as the files are assumed to be small.

The example you linked works great, if uploading a single large file and wanted to chunk it out.

I'm having difficulties figuring out how to approach combining the two examples with successful results. 

Thank you for any help.
