05/19/2020, 4:08 PMHello! I cannot quite figure out how to upload binary files using the "https" library. I'm trying to upload files to OneDrive via it's API, but it only supports binary streams, not base64. I have tried passing https.put a Uint8Array but that doesn't seem to work, so I'm trying to pass the data as a string. I almost have it working, but bytes > 0x7f get encoded with utf-8 and the bytes get messed up. Does anyone know how to go about this correctly? Thanks!
