ShareFile Class
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
The ShareFile class makes it easy to upload, download, and manage files, folders, and share links within ShareFile.
Syntax
ShareFile
Remarks
The ShareFile class provides a simple interface for working with ShareFile. Capabilities include uploading and downloading files, strong encryption support, creating folders, moving and copying items, creating request and send links, and more.
Authentication
This class requires authentication via OAuth 2.0. First, perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth* properties to set the appropriate fields for the chosen OAuthClientProfile and OAuthGrantType.The class has the following default:
Authorization Server URL | "https://secure.sharefile.com/oauth/authorize" |
Token Server URL | "https://{ACCOUNT}.sharefile.com/oauth/token" |
Application Profile
This profile encompasses the most basic grant types that OAuth supports. When this profile is set, all the requests and response handling is done by the class. Depending on the grant type, this may involve launching a browser so a user can login to authenticate with a authorization server. It may also involve starting an embedded web server to receive a response from a redirect.
To start the authentication and authorization process, the Authorize method should be called. If the authorization and authentication was successful, then the OAuthAccessToken property will be populated. Additionally, if a refresh token was provided the OAuthRefreshToken property will be populated as well. These values of the fields are for informational purposes. The class will also cache these tokens along with when the OAuthAccessToken will be expired. When a method that makes requests to the service provider is called or the Authorize method is called the class will automatically check to see if the access token is expired. If it is, it will then automatically try to get a new OAuthAccessToken. If the Authorize method was not used and user interaction would be required, the class will throw an error which can be caught. When user interaction is needed depends on what grant type is set in the OAuthGrantType property. To force the component to only check the access token when the Authorize method is called, the OAuthAutomaticRefresh configuration setting can be set to false.
A brief description of the supported values for the OAuthGrantType property are below. For more information, see the service documentation.
Authorization Code
When using the Authorization Code grant type, the class will use an authorization code to get an access token. For this OAuthGrantType the class expects a OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, OAuthServerAuthURL, and OAuthServerTokenURL to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the class will parse the authorization code, setting the OAuthAuthorizationCode property, from the redirect. Immediately, the class will make a request to the token server to exchange the authorization code for an access token. The token server will return an access token and possibly a refresh token. If the OAuthRefreshToken property is set, or a refresh token is cached, then the class will not launch the browser and use the refresh token in its request to the token server instead of an authorization code.
Implicit
Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.
When using the Implicit grant type, the class will request the authorization server to get an access token. For this OAuthGrantType the class expects a OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and OAuthServerAuthURL to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the class will parse the access token from the redirect.
A disadvantage of the grant type is that can not use a refresh token to silently get a new access token. Most service providers offer a way to silently get a new access token. See the service documentation for specifics. This means the class will not be able to automatically get a fresh token once it expires.
Password
Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.
When using the Resource Owner Password Credentials grant type, the class will authenticate as the resource owner. This allows for the class to avoid user interaction. This grant type often has specific limitations put on it by the service provider. See the service documentation for more details.
For this OAuthGrantType the class requires OAuthPasswordGrantUsername, OAuthClientSecret, and OAuthServerTokenURL to be set. The OAuthClientSecret should be set to the password of the account instead of a typical secret. In some cases, the OAuthClientId also needs to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will make a request to the token server for an access token using the username and password. The token server will return an access token if the authentication was successful. When this access token is expired, the component will automatically (see above for detailed description) make a new request to get a fresh one.
Web Profile
This profile is similar to setting the class to the Application profile and Authorization Code grant type except the class will not launch the browser. It is typically used in situations where there is a back-end that is supporting some front end. This profile expects that OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, OAuthServerAuthURL, OAuthServerTokenURL, and the OAuthReturnURL properties to be set. Before calling the Authorize method, the OAuthWebAuthURL property should be queried to get a URL. This URL should be used to redirect the user to the authorization page for the service provider. The redirect_uri parameter of this URL is mapped to the OAuthReturnURL property. The OAuthReturnURL property should be set to some web server that will parse the authorization code out of the query parameter from the redirect. Once the authorization code is parsed, it should be passed back to the server where it is then set to the OAuthAuthorizationCode property. Once that is set, the Authorize method can be called to exchange the authorization code for an access token and refresh token if provided. The class will then cache these values like normal and use them to make requests. If the OAuthRefreshToken field is set, or a refresh token is cached, then the Authorize method can immediately be called to make a request to the token server to get a new access token.
External OAuth Support
For complex profiles or grant types, or for more control of the flow, it is possible to perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth class or a separate process. Once complete you should have an authorization string which looks like:Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_VALUE
Assign this value to the Authorization property before attempting any operations. Setting the Authorization property will cause the class to ignore the values set in the OAuth property.
Consult the documentation for the service for more information about supported scope values and more details on OAuth authentication.
Referencing and Creating Items, Links, Permissions, and Users
ShareFile typically uses specified ids to reference its objects. When an object is created, through methods such as CreateClient or CreateFolder or uploaded with the UploadFile method; the class will return with the objects ShareFile Id in the form of a string. In certain cases, a path (/parentFolder/ChildFolder) can be used to reference an item.
When a link is created using methods like CreateAndEmailLink , CreateAndEmailRequestLink, CreateLink, or CreateRequestLink then their URL is returned rather than their ShareFile id. To get the newly created id, the class also clears and populates the Links* properties with the new link. When creating a link, you can use the CreateLinkOptions* properties to set certain options for the link.
When a permission is created using the CreatePermission method, the class will not return anything as ShareFile uses a combination of a UserId and the ItemId of a folder to reference permissions. When creating a permission, you can use the CreatePermissionOptions* properties to set certain options for the permission.
Listing and Getting Items, Links, Permissions, and Users
When listing out the Links and Users currently available to the authenticated user you will use the corresponding ListLinks and ListUsers methods. Both of these methods take no parameters and will populates their corresponding properties. For links the properties is the Links* properties and for users it is the Users* properties.
When listing the Items within a Folder or Permissions, the corresponding methods will take a folders ItemId. ListItems will list the items in the folder to the Items* properties. The method will not recursively list out items found in child folders. The ListPermissions method will list all the permissions for the specified folder to the Permissions* properties.
The class can also list out the items associated with a specified link. The ListLinkItems method will take a LinkId and populate Items* properties.
The class also offers the ability to get the specific information about a certain item, link, permission, or user. GetItemInfo, GetLinkInfo and GetUserInfo each take a corresponding id. For permissions, GetPermissionInfo will take a FolderId and UserId rather than a specific id. Once called, they each clear and populate the corresponding properties.
For all list* and get* methods, there is a corresponding event that will fire for each item in the list. The ItemList event will fire when the ListItems, ListLinkItems, or GetItemInfo methods are called; the LinkList event will fire when the ListLinks or GetLinkInfo methods are called; the PermissionList event will fire when the ListPermissions or GetPermissionInfo methods are called; and the UserList event will fire when the ListUsers or GetUserInfo methods are called.
Downloading Files
The DownloadFile method downloads file or folder items.
If a stream has been specified using SetDownloadStream, the file data will be sent through it. If a stream is not specified, and LocalFile is set, the file will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the file data will be held by ItemData.
To download and decrypt an encrypted file, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword before calling this method.
Download Notes
Simple Download
A simple download is consistent with setting the LocalFile to the destination of the file when it is downloaded and then calling the method with the item's id. For example:
shareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
shareFile.DownloadFile(shareFile.Items[0].Id);
Streaming Download
To download to a stream, first call the SetDownloadStream method and then call the DownloadFile method. For example:
shareFile.LocalFile = "";
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream("../../temp/temp_data1.zip", FileMode.OpenOrCreate)) {
shareFile.SetDownloadStream(fs);
shareFile.DownloadFile(id);
}
Uploading Files
The UploadFile method uploads new file items.
If SetUploadStream has been used to set an upload stream, it will take priority as the file data source. If LocalFile is set the file will be uploaded from the specified path. If LocalFile is not set the data in ItemData will be used.
To encrypt the file before uploading it, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword.
Upload Notes
ShareFile offers two ways to upload a file. For smaller files a simple upload option is provided to upload data in one request. This is the default option. For larger files, uploads can be fragmented into multiple pieces, allowing resuming of uploads that may be interrupted.
Simple
By default the class uses the simple upload mechanism.
ShareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
ShareFile.UploadFile("/MyFile.zip");
Resumable
To enable resumable uploads set UseResumableUpload to true. This is recommended for large files. The class will automatically fragment the specified file into smaller pieces and upload each individually.
When UseResumableUpload is set to true and UploadFile is called, a resumable upload session is started by the class. Once called and the class fragments the file, the ResumeURL property is populated. This URL needs to be set so that the class can resume the upload if the upload is interrupted.
During a resumable upload, the FragmentComplete event fires after each fragment is uploaded to indicate overall progress. The class also updates StartByte as necessary to indicate the current offset in the file.
If the upload is interrupted for any reason, resuming it is easy. First, verify that ResumeURL and StartByte are populated (if the same instance of the class is used, they should already be populated, and no special action should be needed). If uploading from a stream, be sure to reset its position to where it was the first time the upload was started (typically the beginning). Then call UploadFile again to resume the upload at the specified StartByte offset.
Note that if the upload is not resumed after some time the upload session will expire.
shareFile.UseResumableUpload = true;
shareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
// The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
// Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous
// upload attempt.
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
MemoryStream uploadStream = new MemoryStream(File.ReadAllBytes("../MyFile.zip"));
shareFile.UseResumableUpload = true;
shareFile.SetUploadStream(uploadStream);
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
// The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
// Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous
// upload attempt.
// You MUST reset the stream's position to where it was when you first started the upload!
uploadStream.Position = 0;
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
Additional Functionality

If the response body is JSON data, the XPath, XText, and other X* configuration settings can then be used to navigate and extract information from it.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
SetDownloadStream Method (ShareFile Class)
Sets the stream to which downloaded data will be written.
Syntax
Remarks
If a download stream is set before data is downloaded, the downloaded data will be written to the stream. The stream should be open and normally set to position 0.
Note: Passing a non-null value for DownloadStream will cause LocalFile to be cleared. Similarly, setting LocalFile to a non-empty value will discard any stream set using this method.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
SetUploadStream Method (ShareFile Class)
Sets the stream from which data is read when uploading.
Syntax
Remarks
If an upload stream is set before data is uploaded, the content of the stream will be read by the class and uploaded to the server. The stream should be open and normally set to position 0.
Note: Passing a non-null value for UploadStream will cause LocalFile to be cleared. Similarly, setting LocalFile to a non-empty value will discard any stream set using this method.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
UpdateClient Method (ShareFile Class)
Updates a client's information.
Syntax
Remarks
Updates a clients first name, last name, email, and/or company. UserId represents the string Id for the client that will be updated. FirstName, LastName, Email, and Company each represents the update value for their corresponding ShareFileUser* properties.
Passing an empty string for FirstName, LastName, Email, or Company will mean that the field will not be updated.
// Creates a client named FirstName Brown, with the email example@example.com with no company.
string userId = shareFile.CreateClient("FirstName", "Brown", "example@example.com", "");
// Updates the First name of the client to John and sets a company, leave everything else the same.
shareFile.UpdateClient(userId, "John", "", "", "nsoftware");
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
UpdateItemInfo Method (ShareFile Class)
Updates an item with new information.
Syntax
Remarks
This method updates the item information for an item identified by ItemId. The item should be in the Item* properties and should be modified from there.
The following properties can be updated from the ShareFileItem* properties:
- Description
- ExpirationTime
- Name
- ParentId
Note that the string root may be used as a ParentId to represent the root folder, and the string home may be used as a folder Id to represent the home folder for the current user. Other special id's include:
- home
- favorites
- allshared
- connectors
- box
- top.
ShareFile.Items[0].Description = "New Description";
ShareFile.Items[0].ExpirationDate = "2099-01-01T00:00:00Z";
ShareFile.Items[0].Name = "New_Name.txt";
ShareFile.Items[0].ParentId = ShareFile.Items[1].Id;
ShareFile.UpdateItemInfo(ShareFile.Items[0].Id);
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
UpdateLink Method (ShareFile Class)
Updates a request or download link.
Syntax
Remarks
This method updates the link information for a link identified by LinkId. The the class requires the link to be in the Link* properties and be modified from there.
The following properties can be updated from the ShareFileLink* properties:
- ExpirationDate
- MaxDownloads
- Name
- RequireLogin
- Title
// Updates a link to require login.
shareFile.Links[1].RequireLogin = true;
shareFile.UpdateLink(shareFile.Links[1].Id);
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
UpdatePermission Method (ShareFile Class)
Updates the permission from the Permission* properties.
Syntax
Remarks
The permission at Index in the Permission* properties will be updated.
The following properties can be updated from the Permission* properties:
- CanDelete
- CanDownload
- CanManagePermissions
- CanUpload
- CanView
- NotifyOnDownload
- NotifyOnUpload
// Updates permission so that the user does not have permission to download from the folder.
shareFile.Permissions[1].CanDownload = false;
shareFile.UpdatePermission(1, true);
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
UploadFile Method (ShareFile Class)
Will upload a file to a folder.
Syntax
Remarks
The method when called will upload a file specified in the LocalFile property. If SetUploadStream has been used to set an upload stream, it will take priority as the file data source. If LocalFile has not been set or a stream has not been set using SetUploadStream then the class will use the data found in the ItemData property; The file will be uploaded to the folder specified by the ParentId parameter. The name of the file will be what is passed to the FileName parameter. Once it has completed uploading it will return the id of the uploaded file.
Note that the string root may be used as a ParentId to represent the root folder, and the string home may be used as a folder Id to represent the home folder for the current user. Other special id's include:
- favorites
- allshared
- connectors
- box
- top
Name Conflict Resolution
The class will overwrite a file if a file is uploaded to the same folder with the same name.If SetUploadStream has been used to set an upload stream, it will take priority as the file data source. If LocalFile is set the file will be uploaded from the specified path. If LocalFile is not set the data in ItemData will be used.
To encrypt the file before uploading it, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword.
Upload Notes
ShareFile offers two ways to upload a file. For smaller files a simple upload option is provided to upload data in one request. This is the default option. For larger files, uploads can be fragmented into multiple pieces, allowing resuming of uploads that may be interrupted.
Simple
By default the class uses the simple upload mechanism.
ShareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
ShareFile.UploadFile("/MyFile.zip");
Resumable
To enable resumable uploads set UseResumableUpload to true. This is recommended for large files. The class will automatically fragment the specified file into smaller pieces and upload each individually.
When UseResumableUpload is set to true and UploadFile is called, a resumable upload session is started by the class. Once called and the class fragments the file, the ResumeURL property is populated. This URL needs to be set so that the class can resume the upload if the upload is interrupted.
During a resumable upload, the FragmentComplete event fires after each fragment is uploaded to indicate overall progress. The class also updates StartByte as necessary to indicate the current offset in the file.
If the upload is interrupted for any reason, resuming it is easy. First, verify that ResumeURL and StartByte are populated (if the same instance of the class is used, they should already be populated, and no special action should be needed). If uploading from a stream, be sure to reset its position to where it was the first time the upload was started (typically the beginning). Then call UploadFile again to resume the upload at the specified StartByte offset.
Note that if the upload is not resumed after some time the upload session will expire.
shareFile.UseResumableUpload = true;
shareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
// The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
// Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous
// upload attempt.
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
MemoryStream uploadStream = new MemoryStream(File.ReadAllBytes("../MyFile.zip"));
shareFile.UseResumableUpload = true;
shareFile.SetUploadStream(uploadStream);
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
// The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
// Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous
// upload attempt.
// You MUST reset the stream's position to where it was when you first started the upload!
uploadStream.Position = 0;
shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.
EndTransfer Event (ShareFile Class)
This event fires when a document finishes transferring.
Syntax
Remarks
The EndTransfer event is fired when the document text finishes transferring from the server to the local host.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Error Event (ShareFile Class)
Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.
Syntax
Remarks
The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error.
The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.
FragmentComplete Event (ShareFile Class)
Fires after each fragment of a resumable upload is completed.
Syntax
Remarks
When UseResumableUpload is true and UploadFile is called, this event will fire after each fragment is uploaded, providing an indication of overall upload progress.
FragmentNumber is the number of the current fragment that has completed. This value starts at 1.
FragmentCount is the total number of fragments that will be uploaded.
Interrupt can be set to true to interrupt the upload. The upload may be resumed later.
Header Event (ShareFile Class)
This event is fired every time a header line comes in.
Syntax
Remarks
The Field parameter contains the name of the HTTP header (which is the same as it is delivered). The Value parameter contains the header contents.
If the header line being retrieved is a continuation header line, then the Field parameter contains "" (empty string).
ItemList Event (ShareFile Class)
This event fires once for each item returned when either ListItems , ListLinkItems or GetItemInfo is called.
Syntax
Remarks
This event fires once for each item returned when either ListItems, ListLinkItems or GetItemInfo is called. The items cannot be modified from this event.
LinkList Event (ShareFile Class)
This event fires once for each link returned when ListLinks or GetLinkInfo is called.
Syntax
Remarks
This event fires once for each link returned when ListLinks or GetLinkInfo is called. The link cannot be modified from this event. This event will not show the items related to the specific link when calling ListLinkItems. Those will be listed using the ItemList event.
Log Event (ShareFile Class)
This event fires once for each log message.
Syntax
Remarks
This event fires once for each log message generated by the class. The verbosity is controlled by the LogLevel setting.
LogLevel indicates the level of message. Possible values are as follows:
0 (None) | No events are logged. |
1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
2 (Verbose) | Detailed data are logged. |
3 (Debug) | Debug data are logged. |
The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.
The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.
The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).
Message is the log entry.
LogType identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are as follows:
- "Info"
- "RequestHeaders"
- "ResponseHeaders"
- "RequestBody"
- "ResponseBody"
- "ProxyRequest"
- "ProxyResponse"
- "FirewallRequest"
- "FirewallResponse"
PermissionList Event (ShareFile Class)
This event fires once for each permission returned when ListPermissions or GetPermissionInfo is called.
Syntax
Remarks
This event fires once for each permission returned when ListPermissions or GetPermissionInfo is called. The permissions cannot be modified from this event. The FolderId represents the item Id for the specific folder the permission is for. The UserId represents the Id for the user the permission is for.
Progress Event (ShareFile Class)
Fires during an upload or download to indicate transfer progress.
Syntax
Remarks
This event fires during an upload or download to indicate the progress of the transfer of the entire request. By default, this event will fire each time PercentDone increases by one percent; the ProgressStep configuration setting can be used to alter this behavior.
Direction indicates whether the transfer is an upload (0) or a download (1).
BytesTransferred reflects the number of bytes that have been transferred so far, or 0 if the transfer is starting (however, see note below).
TotalBytes reflects the total number of bytes that are to be transferred, or -1 if the total is unknown. This amount includes the size of everything in the request like HTTP headers.
PercentDone reflects the overall progress of the transfer, or -1 if the progress cannot be calculated.
Note: By default, the class tracks transfer progress absolutely. If a transfer is interrupted and later resumed, the values reported by this event upon and after resumption will account for the data that was transferred before the interruption.
For example, if 10MB of data was successfully transferred before the interruption, then this event will fire with a BytesTransferred value of 10485760 (10MB) when the transfer is first resumed, and then continue to fire with successively greater values as usual.
This behavior can be changed by disabling the ProgressAbsolute configuration setting, in which case the class will treat resumed transfers as "new" transfers. In this case, the BytesTransferred parameter will always be 0 the first time this event fires, regardless of whether the transfer is new or being resumed.
SSLServerAuthentication Event (ShareFile Class)
Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.
Syntax
Remarks
During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.
When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.
SSLStatus Event (ShareFile Class)
Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.
Syntax
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.
StartTransfer Event (ShareFile Class)
This event fires when a document starts transferring (after the headers).
Syntax
Remarks
The StartTransfer event is fired when the document text starts transferring from the server to the local host.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Transfer Event (ShareFile Class)
This event is fired while a document transfers (delivers document).
Syntax
Remarks
The Text parameter contains the portion of the document text being received. It is empty if data are being posted to the server.
The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred in this Direction since the beginning of the document text (excluding HTTP response headers).
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.
Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.
UserList Event (ShareFile Class)
This event fires once for each user returned when ListUsers or GetUserInfo is called.
Syntax
Remarks
This event fires once for each user returned when ListUsers or GetUserInfo is called. The users cannot be modified from this event. If the user does not have a specified company that parameter will be left as an empty string ("").
CloudStorageStream Type
Syntax
CloudStorageStream (declared in cloudstorage.h)
Remarks
The ShareFile class includes one or more API members that take a stream object as a parameter. To use such API members, create a concrete class that implements the CloudStorageStream interface and pass the ShareFile class an instance of that concrete class.
When implementing the CloudStorageStream interface's properties and methods, they must behave as described below. If the concrete class's implementation does not behave as expected, undefined behavior may occur.
Properties | |
CanRead |
Whether the stream supports reading.
bool CanRead() { return true; } |
CanSeek |
Whether the stream supports seeking.
bool CanSeek() { return true; } |
CanWrite |
Whether the stream supports writing.
bool CanWrite() { return true; } |
Length |
Gets the length of the stream, in bytes.
int64 GetLength() = 0; |
Methods | |
Close |
Closes the stream, releasing all resources currently allocated for it.
void Close() {} This method is called automatically when a CloudStorageStream object is deleted. |
Flush |
Forces all data held by the stream's buffers to be written out to storage.
int Flush() { return 0; } Must return 0 if flushing is successful; or -1 if an error occurs or the stream is closed. If the stream does not support writing, this method must do nothing and return 0. |
Read |
Reads a sequence of bytes from the stream and advances the current position within the stream by the number of bytes read.
int Read(void* buffer, int count) = 0; Buffer specifies the buffer to populate with data from the stream. Count specifies the number of bytes that should be read from the stream. Must return the total number of bytes read into Buffer; this may be less than Count if that many bytes are not currently available, or 0 if the end of the stream has been reached. Must return -1 if an error occurs, if reading is not supported, or if the stream is closed. |
Seek |
Sets the current position within the stream based on a particular point of origin.
int64 Seek(int64 offset, int seekOrigin) = 0; Offset specifies the offset in the stream to seek to, relative to SeekOrigin. Valid values for SeekOrigin are:
Must return the new position within the stream; or -1 if an error occurs, if seeking is not supported, or if the stream is closed (however, see note below). If -1 is returned, the current position within the stream must remain unchanged. Note: If the stream is not closed, it must always be possible to call this method with an Offset of 0 and a SeekOrigin of 1 to obtain the current position within the stream, even if seeking is not otherwise supported. |
Write |
Writes a sequence of bytes to the stream and advances the current position within the stream by the number of bytes written.
int Write(const void* buffer, int count) = 0; Buffer specifies the buffer with data to write to the stream. Count specifies the number of bytes that should be written to the stream. Must return the total number of bytes written to the stream; this may be less than Count if that many bytes could not be written. Must return -1 if an error occurs, if writing is not supported, or if the stream is closed. |
Config Settings (ShareFile Class)
The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.ShareFile Config Settings
By default, this setting is enabled, allowing all pages of results to be accumulated in the appropriate collection properties.
The default value is False.
The default value is False.
The default value is True.
Note: This setting is not applicable when calling GetItemInfo and a path is specified.
The default value is False.
The default value is False.
Bearer (default) | When the access token returned by the server is a Bearer type, the authorization string returned by Authorize will be in the format "Bearer access_token". This can be supplied as the value of the HTTP Authorization header. |
For example, when using the Authorization Code grant type, the OAuthRefreshToken property should be set to a valid refresh token. When using the Client Credential grant type however, the class does not need any additional properties set as it can already get a new access token without user interaction.
If set to true (default) the redirect_uri will be sent in all cases. If set to false the redirect_uri will only be sent if it has a value.
To parse the payload for specific claims, see OAuthJWTXPath.
The current element is specified in the OAuthJWTXPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.

XPath Syntax
XPath syntax is available for the payload of JWT based access tokens if available. An XPath is a series of one or more element accessors separated by the / character, for example: /A/B/C/D.
The following are possible values for an element accessor, which operates relative to the current location specified by the XPath accessors which proceed it in the overall XPath string:
Accessor | Description |
name | The first element with a particular name. Can be *. |
[i] | The i-th element. |
name[i] | The i-th element with a particular name. |
[last()] | The last element. |
[last()-i] | The element i before the last element. |
Description | JSON XPath |
Document root | /json |
Specific element | /json/element_one |
Username Claim (Microsoft Specific) | /json/preferred_username |
Registered Application Name Claim (Microsoft Specific) | /json/app_displayname |
This is not an exhaustive list by any means, but should provide a general idea of the possibilities. To get the text of the specified element, see JWTXText.
The current element is specified in the OAuthJWTXPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
The current element is specified in the OAuthJWTXPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
component.Config("OAuthParamCount=2");
component.Config("OAuthParamName[0]=myvar");
component.Config("OAuthParamValue[0]=myvalue");
component.Config("OAuthParamName[1]=testname");
component.Config("OAuthParamValue[1]=testvalue");
Addtionally, this will also be updated to hold the parameters returned in the response.
for (int i = 0; i < int.Parse(component.Config("OAuthParamCount")); i++)
{
string name = component.Config("OAuthParamName["+i+"]");
string value = component.Config("OAuthParamValue[" + i + "]");
}
- 1 (Plain)
- 2 (S256/SHA256 - default)
This setting can also be set to activate or deactivate the web server. Under normal circumstances, this would not be required as the class will automatically start and stop the web server when Authorize is called. In certain cases, it is required to start the webserver before calling Authorize. For example, if the OAuthReturnURL needs to be set to a relay server, then you will need to start the web server manually. Another example would be when the OAuthReUseWebServer is set to true, the server will not be automatically stopped, and this configuration setting must be set to "false" to stop the embedded web server.
The OAuthWebServerCertStoreType property specifies the type of the certificate store specified by OAuthWebServerCertStore. If the store is password protected, specify the password in OAuthWebServerCertStorePassword.
OAuthWebServerCertStore is used in conjunction with the OAuthWebServerCertSubject property in order to specify the certificate to be used during SSL.
Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.
The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:
MY | A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys. |
CA | Certifying authority certificates. |
ROOT | Root certificates. |
When the certificate store type is PFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is PFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).
Note: This is required when OAuthWebServerSSLEnabled is set to true.
Note: This is only applicable when OAuthWebServerSSLEnabled is set to true.
0 | User - This is the default for Windows. This specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user. Note: This store type is not available in Java. |
1 | Machine - For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store. Note: This store type is not available in Java. |
2 | PFXFile - The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS12) file containing certificates. |
3 | PFXBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS12) format. |
4 | JKSFile - The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates. Note: This store type is available only in Java. |
5 | JKSBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format. Note: This store type is available only in Java. |
6 | PEMKeyFile - The certificate store is the name of a PEM-encoded file that contains a private key and an optional certificate. |
7 | PEMKeyBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains a private key and an optional certificate. |
14 | PPKFile - The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key). |
15 | PPKBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary) that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key). |
16 | XMLFile - The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a certificate in XML format. |
17 | XMLBlob - The certificate store is a string that contains a certificate in XML format. |
The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.
The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:
Field | Meaning |
CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
O | Organization |
OU | Organizational Unit |
L | Locality |
S | State |
C | Country |
E | Email Address |
If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.
Note: This is required when OAuthWebServerSSLEnabled is set to true.
The default value is localhost.
The default is -1, which causes the server's default (50) to be used.
The current element is specified via the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
The current element is specified via the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
The current element is specified via the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
The current element is specified via the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
The current element is specified via the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
When XPath is set to a valid path, XElement points to the name of the element, with XText, XParent, XSubTree, XChildCount, XChildName[i], and XChildXText[i] providing other properties of the element.
XPath Syntax
XPath syntax is available for both XML and JSON documents. An XPath is a series of one or more element accessors separated by the / character, for example: /A/B/C/D. An XPath can be absolute (i.e., it starts with /), or it can be relative to the current XPath location.
The following are possible values for an element accessor, which operates relative to the current location specified by the XPath accessors which proceed it in the overall XPath string:
Accessor | Description |
name | The first element with a particular name. Can be *. |
[i] | The i-th element. |
name[i] | The i-th element with a particular name. |
[last()] | The last element. |
[last()-i] | The element i before the last element. |
name[@attrname="attrvalue"] | The first element with a particular name that contains the specified attribute-value pair.
Supports single and double quotes. (XML Only) |
. | The current element. |
.. | The parent element. |
XPath Examples
Assuming the following XML response:
<firstlevel> <one>value</one> <two> <item>first</item> <item>second</item> </two> <three>value three</three> </firstlevel>
Or, alternatively, the following JSON response:
{ "firstlevel": { "one": "value", "two": ["first", "second"], "three": "value three" } }
Here are some examples of valid XPaths:
Description | XML XPath | JSON XPath |
Document root | / | /json |
Specific element | /firstlevel/one | /json/firstlevel/one |
i-th child | /firstlevel/two/item[2] | /json/firstlevel/two/[2] |
This is not an exhaustive list by any means, but should provide a general idea of the possibilities.
The current element is specified via the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
The current element is specified in the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
HTTP Config Settings
When True, the class adds an Accept-Encoding header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the AcceptEncoding configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".
The default value is True.
If set to True (default), the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the class fails with an error if the server does not support HTTP/2.
The default value is True.
This property is provided so that the HTTP class can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the class.
The AuthScheme property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time User and Password are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the Authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".
The default value is False.
If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new URL is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the class fails with an error.
Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.
Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, User and Password are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.
A Redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the Redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).
The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the class fails with an error instead.
Following are the valid options:
- 0 - Never
- 1 - Always
- 2 - Same Scheme
- "1.0"
- "1.1" (default)
- "2.0"
- "3.0"
When using HTTP/2 ("2.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.
HTTP/2 Notes
When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.
If the server does not support HTTP/2, the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check NegotiatedHTTPVersion after calling a method. The AllowHTTPFallback setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.
HTTP/3 Notes
HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.
When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.
The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example:
Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.
The default value for KeepAlive is false.
0 (None) | No events are logged. |
1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
2 (Verbose) | Detailed data are logged. |
3 (Debug) | Debug data are logged. |
The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.
The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.
The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).
The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF ("\r\n") .
Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.
This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the class beyond what is provided.
.NET
Http http = new Http();
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.PostData = "body";
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
C++
HTTP http;
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.SetPostData("body", 5);
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
Note: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.
The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified. Note: The CodePage setting must be set to a value capable of interpreting the specified host name. For instance, to specify UTF-8, set CodePage to 65001. In the C++ Edition for Windows, the *W version of the class must be used. For instance, DNSW or HTTPW.
Note: This setting is applicable only to Mac/iOS editions.
When True (default), the class will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.
Override the default with the name and version of your software.
TCPClient Config Settings
If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

Note: This configuration setting is only available in the Unix platform. It is not supported in masOS or FreeBSD.
In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.
In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.
The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).
Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.
In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.
If the class is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).
Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.
LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.
This; setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.
If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.
If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.
The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.
By default, this config is set to false.
0 | IPv4 Only |
1 | IPv6 Only |
2 | IPv6 with IPv4 fallback |
SSL Config Settings
When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.
Enabling this setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.
The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g. 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1 etc). OpenSSL recommends to use the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
sequences. Before, between, and after the certificates text is allowed which can be used e.g. for descriptions of the certificates. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".
By default OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.
If set to true, the class will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:
- The target host name is the same.
- The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
- The application process that calls the function is the same.
- The logon session is the same.
- The instance of the class is the same.
The value is formatted as a list of paths separated by semicolons. The class will check for the existence of each file in the order specified. When a file is found the CA certificates within the file will be loaded and used to determine the validity of server or client certificates.
The default value is:
/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem;/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt;/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt;/etc/pki/tls/cacert.pem
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw ... eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj -----END CERTIFICATE----- \r \n -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp .. d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA -----END CERTIFICATE-----
Please note that this setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.
Use this setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.
When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList config setting.
By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").
The special value "*" means that the class will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.
Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.
Example values when SSLProvider is set to Platform:
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*");

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols) only the following cipher suites are supported:
- TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
- TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
- TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.
Not all supported protocols are enabled by default (the value of this setting is 4032). If you want more granular control over the enabled protocols, you can set this property to the binary 'OR' of one or more of the following values:
TLS1.3 | 12288 (Hex 3000) |
TLS1.2 | 3072 (Hex C00) (Default) |
TLS1.1 | 768 (Hex 300) (Default) |
TLS1 | 192 (Hex C0) (Default) |
SSL3 | 48 (Hex 30) [Platform Only] |
SSL2 | 12 (Hex 0C) [Platform Only] |
SSLEnabledProtocols - TLS 1.3 Notes
By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled the class will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.
In editions which are designed to run on Windows SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is only supported on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.
If set to 1 (Platform provider) please be aware of the following notes:
- The platform provider is only available on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up.
- SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
- If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2 the above restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.
SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:
SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the class when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.
This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.
If set to True all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.
When set, the class will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffice for debugging purposes. When writing to this file the class will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.
Note: This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.
The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw ... eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj -----END CERTIFICATE----- \r \n -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp .. d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA -----END CERTIFICATE-----
When specified the class will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported the class fails with an error.
The format of this value is a comma separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance:
component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal;
component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2
component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa");
The default value for this setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.
In order to not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.
The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.
When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result only some groups are included by default in this setting.
Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used which is not present in this list it will incur an additional round trip and time to generate the key share for that group.
In most cases this setting does not need to be modified. This should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.
The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072
The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.
FIPS mode can be enabled by setting the UseFIPSCompliantAPI configuration setting to true. This is a static setting which applies to all instances of all classes of the toolkit within the process. It is recommended to enable or disable this setting once before the component has been used to establish a connection. Enabling FIPS while an instance of the component is active and connected may result in unexpected behavior.
For more details please see the FIPS 140-2 Compliance article.
Note: This setting is only applicable on Windows.
Note: Enabling FIPS-compliance requires a special license; please contact sales@nsoftware.com for details.
Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.
On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default.
To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.
