Does the Google Drive API support Content-Range for Uploads?

Question

Similar to this question: How does Google Drive API support Content-Range for download requests?

but for uploads. Does the Drive/Docs API let you set a range if you want to update some bytes in an existing file?

Answer 1

This depends what you are trying to do.

You can't upload a few bytes to an existing file in a random access way. The API does, however, support the resumable upload protocol so that you can upload large files in chunks. This is fault tolerant per chunk, and uploads can be restarted for any reason if there is a failure.
