Thanks Steve

Actually I am trying to update the existing file

For ex:

1. I have uploaded file "file1.xlsx" with data as "ABCD"

2. Now in my local file I have updated the file content as "ABCD-1234" and again try to upload it in Dropbox file "file1.xlsx".

{"path": "/folder1/file1.xlsx","mode": {".tag":"update", "update":"<rev>"},"autorename": false, "mute": false }

3. Upload is done but the "file1.xlsx" is not updated. It is showing old content i.e "ABCD"
