416 Error when initiating upload
I'm trying to initiate an upload by posting to:
/d2l/api/lp/(version)/(orgUnitId)/managefiles/file/upload
I'm including the required headers (with the actual token where the placeholder is):
{ 'Authorization': 'Bearer <TOKEN>', 'X-Upload-Content-Type': 'text/csv', 'X-Upload-Content-Length': '530', 'X-Upload-File-Name': 'upload_test.csv'}
However, I'm getting the following error: 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable
And response.text reads:
{"detail":"The page cannot be displayed because the request range was not satisfiable."}
I can find no information about this error on the community (or anywhere else online). Does anyone have insight?

I believe I have this figured out. I'm using Python Requests, which automatically treats 308 responses as redirects. Including allow_redirects=False in my request prevents this, allowing me to get the upload key from the api response.

Is there any chance you would be able to share your Python script or function calls? I am working on something very similar (uploading a file to a dropbox as feedback) and have been getting some related errors. That would be a huge help!
