Example

See this example in Java for how to share a file. Note: The java example sets the content-type before sending the object to the API.  The api will store whatever content type it gets sent and use that to return the object when you get it at a later time.  If no content type is set the API cannot determine what the stream of bytes means and will return it with a general content type later.  This may cause issues if you are trying to download the files from the API at a later date if the content type is not set.  A good list of content/media types can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_media_type
