Note
Although the callback parameter is still supported, we recommend that you use the Promise object instead, which is described later in this topic.

Examples
The following example demonstrates how to use the upload version of the OneDrive file picker.
<form> <input id="file" name="file" type="file" /> </form> <button onclick="uploadFile_fileDialog()">Save file with OneDrive file picker (calling WL.filedialog)</button> function uploadFile_fileDialog() { WL.fileDialog({ mode: "save" }).then( function (response) { WL.upload({ path: response.data.folders[0].id, element: "file", overwrite: "rename" }).then( function (response) { document.getElementById("info").innerText = "File uploaded."; }, function (responseFailed) { document.getElementById("info").innerText = "Error uploading file: " + responseFailed.error.message; } ); }, function (responseFailed) { document.getElementById("info").innerText = "Error getting folder info: " + responseFailed.error.message; } ); }
The following example demonstrates how to use the download version of the file picker.
<button onclick="downloadFile_fileDialog()">Open file with OneDrive file picker (calling WL.filedialog)</button> function downloadFile_fileDialog() { WL.fileDialog({ mode: "open", select: "multi" }).then( function (response) { var msg = ""; // For each folder selected... if (response.data.folders.length > 0) { for (folder = 0; folder < response.data.folders.length; folder++) { // Use folder IDs to iterate through child folders and files as needed. msg += "\n" + response.data.folders[folder].id; } } // For each file selected... if (response.data.files.length > 0) { for (file = 0; file < response.data.files.length; file++) { // Use file IDs to iterate through files as needed. msg += "\n" + response.data.files[file].id; } } document.getElementById("info").innerText = "Selected folders/files:" + msg; }, function (responseFailed) { document.getElementById("info").innerText = "Error getting folder/file info: " + responseFailed.error.message; } ); }
