Hi there,
I am currently implementing a .net client for consuming the geoprocessing service part upload REST api.
The commit endpoint accepts a checksum parameter which IMHO should verify that the file which was uploaded in parts is actually the file which was split up by the client.
See: https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/services-reference/enterprise/commit/
The documentation lacks quite a bit of information:
- How should the checksum be constructed (probably SHA251)?
- How should the checksum string be encoded (probably BASE64 or HEX)?
I made some tests and also provided some nonesense checksums which were all accepted by the server. I suspect that this parameter has no effect at all.
Does anyone have any insights or experiences with this?
