concurrent upload in chunks
Hi, I have done concurrent upload in chunks. My code is fine, and doesn't have any errors. But when I download them, I can't open them My code : My file has been uploaded to dropbox: A...
I tried it and my file was corrupted. Can I just do UploadSessionAppendV2Async sequentially?

Dropbox StaffYes, the UploadSessionAppendV2Async method supports both "concurrent" and "sequential" upload session types. Which one you use is up to you, but in either case you'll need to make sure you're sending the correct data at the correct offsets.
I used "concurrent" and my file was uploaded at the correct size. But it cannot be opened and used
And this is when I do the upload with "sequential", it can be opened
Can you tell me why this is? Thanks

From that description, it sounds like the code you're using for the "concurrent" type is sending the wrong pieces of data and/or sending the data with the wrong offsets. You'll need to debug the code you've written for that to determine why it's doing so and how to correct it.
