To see this information with your sharperlight service help
{sharperlight service url}/Help#FilePost
This POST method allows you to upload files to the server and save, update and delete them in the folder locations defined in Site Setup.
There are two properties in Site Setup / Product Settings / System.
The property called ‘Scheduler Files in Folder’ will allow anyone to access the files without an user session id.
The other property called ‘Secured Folders’ will always required a valid user session id to access and update the files. ?usid=xxx
POST The POST content is a JSON object where the file content is encoded as base64. See the HTML5 JavaScript object called FileReader and readAsDataURL.

action values are save,update and delete

path can be a full file path or a relative file path ..\ The relative file path will use the first Secure Folder or Scheduler Files in Folder found in Site Setup / Product Settings / System.
If the path starts with \ then a wild card match is done to determine if the secure or trusted folder location is on C: D: E: or F: drive.

data when can be prefixed with data:…;base64, as seen when using JavaScript FileReader readAsDataURL or directly encoded as based64 with no prefix. This property is not required when deleting files

modifiedDateUtc is optional and is used to set the modifed date timeof the file if it is not the current time
