Multiple File Upload With Metadata Using REST

hi all
I want to upload multiple files with metadata to document library using REST API. I am using this msdn article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn769086(v=office.15).aspx for uploading file. I am able to upload single file to document library but it is not working for multiple file. when I select multiple file it is uploading last selected file. can
anyone help with this. I am using office 365 environment.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to use the REST to upload multiple files.
Per my knowledge, the REST API is not supported for uploading multiple files via a single call.
You can write your own loop to upload multiple files via an individual call.

Javascript multiple file upload with progressbar does not work in firefox, please help

I want to upload files using this javascript snipped as well as processing non file fields on the same form. This works beautiful in IE11, Chrome and Opera, but not in firefox (version 34).
I fired the non file handler with the action attribute on the <form> like this:
<form id="upload_form" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST" action="nonFile.php">
and the javascript with:
<input name="submit" type="submit" style="background: green" value="Submit" onclick="return uploadFiles()"/>
When I change type="button" the file uploads work in FF but the I have no control over the non file fileds.
Can someone gives me an indication of what is wrong?
oXHR.upload.addEventListener("progress", function(e){
var percent=(e.loaded/e.total) * 100;
_(idProg).value = Math.round(percent);
_(idstat).innerHTML = filename.name + " "+Math.round(percent)+"% --- Please Wait";
}, false);
// Upload finish, show the size of the file in Bytes, KBytes or MBytes
oXHR.onreadystatechange = function(){
if (oXHR.readyState == 4 && oXHR.status == 200){
var iBytesTransfered = bytesToSize(filesize);
_(idstat).innerHTML = filename.name + " Size: " + iBytesTransfered + " "+100+"%";
_(idProg).value = 100;
// Upload failed
oXHR.addEventListener("error", function(e){
_(idstat).innerHTML = "Upload Failed";
}, false);
// Upload aborted
oXHR.addEventListener("abort", function(e){
_(idstat).innerHTML = "Upload Aborted";
}, false)

Multiple file upload in SharePoint 2013 using AjaxFileUpload

Hi all,
I want to add multiple files using file upload control in our visual web part SharePoint 2013. I tried to use AjaxFileUpload (from Ajaxcontrol toolkit) in my visual web part and also added the handler in web.config as described in article (http://www.asp.net/ajaxLibrary/AjaxControlToolkitSampleSite/ajaxFileUpload/ajaxFileUpload.aspx).
But, it’s not even opening the browse dialog box.
I also tried to see if any third party control is available to achieve multiple file upload in SharePoint 2013 Visual web part, but without any success.
Please help.

Monica

Problem With Uploading IDOC Metadata using IDX2

Hi Experts,
While i am uploading IDoc metadata using IDX2 it is showing
"I::000" information.
Anybody please help me why i am getting this problem?

Hi Bhuvan,
Basicall this problem arises when user Id being used in the SM59 to trigger the IDoc's from the R3 system , i,e , the XI user id being used in SM59 of R3 does not have the authorizations to post the Idoc.
Note : 837595 describes the authorizations needed to post and Idoc. Make sure that the user id has the authorizations in this note.
Activate the authorization check in transaction ST01.
And also it may be due to insufficient roles for the user which ur using in RFC connection to SAP system.
Check with the port in IDX1 whether u have configured corectly.
Check this link

Large File Upload ~50mb Fails using Firefox/Safari. Upload Limit is 1gig set at Web App. IIS timeout set at 120 seconds.

Strange issue. User can upload the file using IE9, but cannot do the same using Safari, Chrome, or FireFox. The library resides in a Site Collection that was migrated from a 2010 Site Collection. The timeout on IIS is 120 seconds.Very strange
indeed.
Haven't been able to trace the Correlation ID at this point.

try using rest api for this much file upload if you are using custom solution.
try below links for reference:

How to add a field for multiple file upload in WebApps ?

I am creating a WebApp for user to save some information with multiple pitcures. I can only see a single uploader.
How can I add multiple image uploader and How can I create a custom file upload field rather than image upload ?

Hi,
There's no other upload field type for web apps. You'll need to use the "image file type" to apply multiple file upload fields within the web app form in this case.
Kind regards,
-Sidney

Multiple file upload not working in IE10 and IE11

Hi,
As per the UI5 documentation( https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/sdk/#test-resources/sap/ui/commons/demokit/FileUploader.html) , UI5 supports multiple file uploading for IE10 and IE11. I set the "multiple: true" flag in the fileuploader example page and the file browser dialog is not allowing to select multiple files. Does UI5 provide multi file upload support for IE10 and IE11 or am i missing anything ?
regards
Raja

Huh?
Your problem makes no sense. The filename is included with the upload so that the server knows what the file was originally called. Are you running the JSP locally and reading the file directly off the hard drive??
I note also that you aren't using a multipart form, which is required to upload a file.
<form action="uploadFile.jsp" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="upload" value="<%= fileName %>" />
</form>You'll need to use the Jakarta Commons FileUpload class to correctly process a form encoded with "multipart/form-data" or getParameter("xxx") will return null. You can also use the older com.oreilly.servlet.MultipartForm or whatever it's called. I'm pretty certain that the Jakarta Commons obsoletes all the COS classes.

Multiple image upload with save to database problem

I am developing some backend work for a client, and we recently used the Multiple image upload with save to database wizard without a problem. A few days later, we noticed that we could only upload a single file at a time - it seems that the coding is no longer able to access the flash part of this and is using the javasript function instead. I know the web hosting company has made some changes on the server, and I did some reearch and it seems that there could be an issue with Flash 10, but has anyone else experienced anything like this? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Jeremy

Thank you for the responses. I have already updated awhile ago, so I am wondering what happened. Not sure if during the server update, some files were replaced (unless I totally forgot to update to 1.0.1 on this site). So I reinstalled 1.0.1, deleted the includes folder from the server and uploaded my includes folder and it now works again.
Again, thanks for the help.

Multiple Image Upload with Save to DB - any help would be appreciated

Hi - I'm running into the following issue when using the Multiple Image Upload with Save to DB behaviour.
When I click the link to upload multiple files, I am given the list of local files to choose to upload. No problem here - I can select multiple files.
When i select choose, the uploader shows the progress but hangs at 0%
However (if I cancel the uploads), the first image of the group is uploaded and it's corresponding database entry is entered correctly.
Anyone else have this hangup? If so how did you get around it?
Thanks!
Dan

Just thought I would update.
The problem seems to be related to redirecting.
I had specified a redirect page, which of course stops the flash file from continuing to upload images after the first one.
Anyone know how to change this so when the flash uploader finished it goes back to a list page?
Thanks again.

Multiple image upload with save to database wizard problem

hi,
i need to upload multiple images (6) in a table called pictures. i will need the names stored in the database and the files uploaded on the server. since i am new to dreamweaver i can not figure out on how to make this work.
the multiple image upload wizard uploads the images fine and creates a subfolder with the right id but i have no file names in the database at this point. i tried the multiple image upload with save to database wizard but i only get one upload button. it worked fine with one image but i need 6 pics uploaded. the i tried to first upload the pictures with the multiple image upload wizard and use the update wizard to add the names afterwards but that did not work either. hmm. would be great if someone could help me out.
thanks, jan

Multiple Image upload with save to database

Hi everyone,
I wonder whether anyone can help me, I have been trying to use the multiple image upload with save to database wizard. When I create the page and upload it and then view it in Safari the only thing that is on the page is an upload button. When I press the upload button I am able to browse my files and select them. When this window closes a flash loading value is shown but no images have been uploaded.
Am I missing anything? I have had no problems uploading single files and creating albums. I want to create an online gallery so that I can do a multiple upload to a specific album if this is possible.
Cheers
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
>>
but only the filename appeared in the database and no other information was stored.
>>
that´s how it´s been designed also in the "single upload" -- the path_to_the_folder where the files sit in have to be determined elsewhere
>>
{wedimg_idalb}
>>
I don´t see any reference to this "dynamic data" placeholder in any of your table columns you posted -- where does this one come from ?
>>
1. I have multiple clients and each client has their own set of images.
2. Each set of client images must be linked to an album via the album ID
>>
do you have any "foreign key" which is related to the user_table´s ID in order to make user ID 2 upload his images in album ID 2 ? How will the upload page "know" where the images are going to be uploaded to ?
>>
and the album page, wedding_alb
>>
to my mind *this* table would itself need a foreign key to the user_table in order to "map" record 2 to user ID 2 -- or do I miss something ?

Multiple Image Upload with save to database not working in IE anymore

Since updating IE to SP3 ADDT Multiple Image Upload with save to database does not work anymore in IE. It will show a regular file upload field, an does not allow selection of multiple files. It does work in Firefox, but not all my clients use firefox.
PSE Advice.

I would consider buying some pluggins from dmxzone.com. They
may cost a
bit upfront but in the long run, you've probably be saving a
lot of
headaches.
http://www.dmxzone.com/
If time's an issue, with these plugins, you could probably
be up and
running in a half hour. George has some really nice pluggins
for
Dreamweaver and well worth the money.

Multiple File Upload Applet

I am attempting to code a JavaBean wrapped by an applet that will upload multiple files to a web server via the multipart/form-data mime-type.
I have moved a number of files to the web server with limited success.
I cannot move more than roughly 30Mbs of files in any configuration without causing a fatal exception.
I am confident that it is a limitation of the client's VM and the memory allocated to the applet.
I have seen several commercial grade applets that claim they can move any number of files even totalling 180Mbs.
My applet is very simple. It opens a JFileChooser dialog box, allowing the user to select multiple files and communicates directly to a server side component that accepts multipart/form-data.
I am navigating the protocol just fine. It seems to be a memory problem on the client side. Does anyone know how I can defeat this restriction and pass a reasonably high number of files (100-200) ranging from 50Mbs to 180+Mbs?
Secondly, why does this happen: when I put my files onto the output stream, no files move accros the stream until I call .close(). How can I write the code to begin transferring bytes as soon as I call outputstream.write(xxx)?

i am also developing multiple file upload applet and i transferred 1,4gb of data (2 files a 700MB) successfully.
also, i just transferred a few hundred files with total size of 900mb to my localhost webserver (~5000kb/s)
1) open file
2) read a few kilobytes into buffer
3) send them to the server
4) flush the outputstream (!!)
5) clear buffer and goto 2)
6) if end-of-file, close the file and flush again.
the outputstream is flushed every few kilobytes, so it will be sent over the socket to the server and not buffered until dawn.
i don't know how the server-side is working, but i used apache/php script.
you can try out my applet under
http://www.haller-systemservice.net/jupload/

Multiple File Upload - Database

Hi
I have tried and I can't work it out. I have a insert record function which enters the data into the database. I have the filepath set to a file field. If I add an "Upload File" function from ADDT it uses the file field to upload the PDF and also adds the file path to the database.
How do I get the 'Multiple File Upload" to upload the files when I click "Insert Record".
'Multiple File Upload" adds an upload link which seems to be separate from the 'Insert Form"
I hope this makes sense to someone
Cheers
Laurence

Hi Laurence,
'Multiple File Upload" adds an upload link which seems to be separate from the 'Insert Form"
that´s true, and that´s also the reason why multiple file or image upload triggers IMHO should rather be attached to an "update record" form -- because here´s where the respective record´s primary key has already been stored and can be used as part of the upload transaction
(e.g. to create a folder named after the primary key), what would be questionable when applied to an insert record form.
I´m personally always using single file upload with ADDT´s Insert Record forms and relocate the multi upload stuff to Update Record forms -- also as a sort of "safety measure", because one never really knows if e.g. the filesize sum of all uploaded files will or will not exceed the server´s "upload_max_filesize" value and hence might possibly break the upload procedure.
