recovery of interrupted resumable uploads?

Josh N.10

I have an app that uses the dropbox api to upload audio data that is recorded as it is recorded using the resumable upload api from the browser. Some of my users are experiencing browser crashes during the recording. Dropbox already has the data up to that point but because the resumable upload hasn't been sent the finish request, it doesn't show up in their folder. Is there a way to recover interrupted resumable uploads such as this?

If you're using chunked a.k.a. resumable uploading, you have 24 hours to complete any upload session. So, as long as your app has access to the data it wants to continue uploading, and the upload ID (a.k.a. UploadCursor in the JavaScript SDK) for the uploading session it started, then yes, it can resume uploading from the last chunk that was successfully uploaded.

If your app doesn't have the rest of the data, but you want to just commit the data that was already uploaded, you can do so as long as you know the upload ID.
