LockFile Method

Locks the specified file.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub LockFile(ByVal ExpDate As String, ByVal isDownloadAllowed As Boolean)

[C#]
public void LockFile(string expDate, bool isDownloadAllowed);

This method locks the file specified by ResourceId so other users cannot modify it.

ExpDate specifies the time at which the lock expires. This parameter is required.

IsDownloadAllowed indicates whether the file can be downloaded by other users while locked.

Dates are formatted as RFC 3399 timestamps. When specifying a date in a request it should be converted to UTC for instance:

2016-04-17T09:12:36-00:00

Dates returned in responses may contain an offset. For instance:

2016-03-02T13:40:24-08:00

NOTE: This method has a corresponding asynchronous version (LockFileAsync) for use in the WinRT environment.
