How to do Parallel upload of parts of a file to dropbox using Javascript

Question

I have large file. I want to upload it to dropbox. Since the file size is too much, I want to divide the file into multiple parts and upload few parts in parallel. So that if one part fails, I can retry upload for only that part.

Is there a way to do that with dropbox-sdk.js or any other method?

Any kind of help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

In java, you can use session uploader. "UploadSessionStartUploader" . Not aware of the equivalent JS function — ND003

@ND003 I found the JS equivalent here dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/…. But I'm not able to do parallel uploads of parts of a file. Does "UploadSessionStartUploader" supports parallel uploads ? — ashish_pal

If you're referring to dropbox-sdk-js, you can upload a large file using upload sessions:

You can upload multiple different files in parallel using upload sessions, but you can only upload a single file's data serially. That is, for a single file, you can only upload one consecutive piece of data at a time.
