While calling from a php page for protecting a document using curl.
It is not returning protected document. Can anyone help me out.

$bearer_token = 'Authorized Token';
$protectxlsx_headers = array(				
					"accept: application/json",				
					"authorization: Bearer ".$bearer_token,
					"Content-Type: multipart/form-data",
					"x-aspose-client: Containerize.Swagger",
				);
$protectxlsx_data = file_get_contents('path to excel file');
$protectxlsx_ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($protectxlsx_ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/protect?password=ABCD');
curl_setopt($protectxlsx_ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($protectxlsx_ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($protectxlsx_ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $protectxlsx_headers);
curl_setopt($protectxlsx_ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $protectxlsx_data);
$protectxlsx_apiresult = curl_exec($protectxlsx_ch);
url_close($protectxlsx_ch);
$protectxlsx_apiresult_jsondecode = json_decode($protectxlsx_apiresult, true);

@martinhorsley,

We found some details based on the request ID from server logs. From the above display, it should be that there is a problem setting multipart/form-data.
Please try to use Aspose.Cells Cloud SDK for PHP to finish your work. And refer to the following code base on Aspose.Cells Cloud SDK for PHP.

We will also do our best to fix your code.

 $instance = new CellsApi(getenv("CellsCloudClientId"),getenv("CellsCloudClientSecret"),"v3.0",getenv("CellsCloudApiBaseUrl"));
 $assemblyTestXlsx = "assemblytest.xlsx";
 $dataSourceXlsx = "datasource.xlsx";
 
 $mapFiles = array ();
 $mapFiles[$assemblyTestXlsx] = CellsApiTestBase::getfullfilename($assemblyTestXlsx);
 $mapFiles[$dataSourceXlsx] = CellsApiTestBase::getfullfilename($dataSourceXlsx);
 
 $request = new PostProtectRequest();
 $request->setFile( $mapFiles);
 $request->setPassword('12345');
 $protectWorkbookRequest = new ProtectWorkbookRequst();
 $request->setProtectWorkbookRequst($protectWorkbookRequest);
 $instance->postProtect($request);

We will also do our best to fix your code.

@martinhorsley,

Please refer to the following code to modify the way you upload files.

 $curl = curl_init();
 $bearer_token = 'your access token';
 $protectxlsx_headers = array(
 "accept: application/json",
 "authorization: Bearer ".$bearer_token,
 "Content-Type: multipart/form-data",
 "x-aspose-client: Containerize.Swagger",
 );
 $data = array('name' => 'Book1.xlsx', 'file' => ' D:\cells.cloud-sdk-php\TestData\Book1.xlsx');
 curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/protect? Password=123456");
 curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $protectxlsx_headers);
 curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
 curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
 curl_exec($curl);
