Hello,
I am using .Net API for uploading PPT's but every time i got the
following error.
"Slideshow file is not a source object"

I am passing values following way.

executePostCommand("http://www.slideshare.net/api/1/upload_slideshow",
"api_key=" + api_key + "&ts=" + timestamp + "&hash= " +
CalculateSHA1(shared_secret + timestamp, Encoding.UTF8) + "
&username=XXX&password=XXX&slideshow_title=12345&slideshow_srcfile=New.PPT");

I think the way i am supplying file is wrong. So anyone can have idea
then please reply.
It's too much important.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks
Deval Shah

Dear Deval,

I think many developers are facing this problem while trying to upload
from the API. The upload request goes through fine if you upload
through a ASP.NET web-page or a simple HTML form. We will keep you
informed about this problem and let you know when the issue is sorted
out.
