I would like to include a VFP routine to do the following:
Zip or RAR the database and all tables and indexes
Send them automatically to either DropBox, OneDrive or GoogleDrive
I know that they can be sent to the applicable folders in the PC and
then they would automatically be sent to the cloud.
But I wonder if there is a way to access the cloud repository directly,
without sending the file to the local folder first
I that is the case, what would be the VFP code to use?

Hi Rafael,
you need to use the web-based API, VFP being a http client ...
eg for dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/docs
you can eg use the wwHTTP package:
with newobject('wwHTTP', 'wwHTTP.prg')
.addPostKey('user', <userID>)
.addPostKey('password', <password>)
response = .httpGet(' https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth2/authorize')
...
endwith
(you need to read the API spec. to figure out the exact requests needed
and their syntax)

Most online services expose an HTTP API
The main issue is the technology used to trade data, whether it's
traditional post key-value pairs, XML (web service) or JSON (rest server).

Why not drop to the folder? You have to write to one anyway to initiate
sending. I don't think that you have access to a compression routine that
you can alter the write aspect of the process to be another type of
process, right? In VFP that is.
