HTTP API v2 to overwrite files when moving them

[Eeosk T.]

I'm using the /files/move endpoint, but getting the error that a file of the same name exists in the destination directory (which it does).

How can I set the HTTP request to simply override the existing file with the file being moved?

The API doesn't currently offer mode options like this (e.g., to force an overwrite) for the copy and move endpoints, so you'll need to delete the existing file first. We'll consider this a feature request though.
