ODBC application
Use these SQL queries in your ODBC application data source:
Upload a file to a SharePoint Document Library
SELECT * FROM upload_file
WITH (DriveId='b!GtLN726LE0eY5F2BBNi14wMKmwdpCDFMn1d71ra11GuQ4DORpHy-XXXXXXXXXXX'
,DiskFilePath='C:\My files\Employees\List.xls'
,SharePointFilePath='List.xlsx' --Upload on Root (Create -or- Overwrite if ConflictBehavior = 'replace')
--,SharePointFilePath='myfolder/List.xlsx' --Upload under some folder
--,SharePointFilePath='01SUOJPKGJXIXXGXACFVDK3QH5JYARFOMB' --Overwrite Exising File Id
--,ConflictBehavior = 'replace' -- fail, rename, replace (If File Exists Default=fail)
--,UseSourceFileTimeStamp = 'true' --By default uploaded file set Current Date/Time for Creation/Modified date
)
--DriveId can be retrieved by selecting from 'Drives' table.
Upload a file to SharePoint Document Library (Overwrite file if exists)
Uploads a file to a SharePoint Document Library and if file already exists then overwrite it rather than throwing error (Default is throw error)
SELECT * FROM upload_file
WITH (DriveId='b!GtLN726LE0eY5F2BBNi14'
,DiskFilePath='C:\My files\Employees\List.xls'
,SharePointFilePath='List.xlsx' --Upload on Root (Create -or- Overwrite if ConflictBehavior = 'replace')

,ConflictBehavior = 'replace' -- fail, rename, replace (If File Exists Default=fail)
--,UseSourceFileTimeStamp = 'true' --By default uploaded file set Current Date/Time for Creation/Modified date
)
--DriveId can be retrieved by selecting from 'list_drives' endpoint.
SQL Server
Use these SQL queries in SQL Server after you create a data source in Data Gateway:
