Example – uploading data as a tileset

Tilesets can be added to custom basemap styles, making it possible to quickly load your data layers. This demonstration code uses the secret token with read and write capabilities to upload a GeoJSON file as a tileset using the Mapbox Python SDK:

token = 'sk.eyJ1IjoibG9oxZGdqIn0.Y-qlJfzFzr3MGkOPPbtZ5g' #example secret tokenfrom mapbox import Uploaderimport uuidset_id = uuid.uuid4().hexservice = Uploader(access_token=token)with open('ztca_bayarea.geojson', 'rb') as src:    response = service.upload(src, set_id)print(response)

If the response returned is a 201 response, the upload has succeeded.
