#
getClientIdentifier( )
An identifier for the API client, typically of the form "Name/Version".
This is used to set the HTTP User-Agent header when making API requests.
Example: "PhotoEditServer/1.3"
An identifier for the API client, typically of the form "Name/Version".
This is used to set the HTTP User-Agent header when making API requests.
Example: "PhotoEditServer/1.3"
If you're the author a higher-level library on top of the basic SDK, and the
"Photo Edit" app's server code is using your library to access Dropbox, you should append
your library's name and version to form the full identifier. For example,
if your library is called "File Picker", you might set this field to:
"PhotoEditServer/1.3 FilePicker/0.1-beta"
The exact format of the User-Agent header is described in
section 3.8 of the HTTP specification.
Note that underlying HTTP client may append other things to the User-Agent, such as
the name of the library being used to actually make the HTTP request (such as cURL).

Returns
array A pair of (string $uploadId, int $byteOffset). $uploadId
