Upload Large File to SP Online in Chunks using Rest API - FinishUpload fails

Question

I was trying to upload the a larger file (500mb) to SharePoint Online document library. I followed the way to upload the file in Chunks with the Article: Programmatically Uploading Large Files In SharePoint Online

Startupload and continueupload works well But, finishupload(uploadid,offset) fails at last chunks with an saying:

"Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SPBITSSessionIncompleteException" "The upload was incomplete, Try to save again"**.

I have already tried changing the chunk size 10mb to 100mb but It fails every time at finishupload.

The same behavior works fine when I use a CSOM way, following this code: https://piyushksingh.com/2016/07/22/upload-large-files-to-sharepoint-online/

Answer 1

I would recommend use PNP core sdk to upload large file in SharePoint online library.

Use below code to upload large file in SharePoint online library.

// Get a reference to a folder
IFolder siteAssetsFolder = await context.Web.Folders.Where(f => f.Name == "SiteAssets").FirstOrDefaultAsync();

// Upload a file by adding it to the folder's files collection, the file will be uploaded in chunks of 10MB
IFile addedFile = await siteAssetsFolder.Files.AddAsync("2gbfile.test", 
                  System.IO.File.OpenRead($".{Path.DirectorySeparatorChar}TestFilesFolder{Path.DirectorySeparatorChar}2gbfile.test"));

Refer this PNP core SDK docs.
