You can set some special headers that Nextcloud will interpret.

+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| Header | Description | Example |
+=================+=================================================================+==========================================+
| X-OC-MTime | | Allow to specify a modification time. | ``1675789581`` |
| | | The response will contain the header ``X-OC-MTime: accepted`` | |
| | | if the mtime was accepted. | |
+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| X-OC-CTime | | Allow to specify a creation time. | ``1675789581`` |
| | | The response will contain the header ``X-OC-CTime: accepted`` | |
| | | if the mtime was accepted. | |
+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| OC-Checksum | | A checksum that will be stored in the DB. | ``md5:04c36b75222cd9fd47f2607333029106`` |
| | | The server will not do any sort of validation. | |
| | | Currently used algorithms are ``MD5``, ``SHA1``, ``SHA256``, | |
| | | ``SHA3-256``, ``Adler32``. | |
+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| X-Hash | | Allow to request the file's hash from the server. | ``md5``, ``sha1``, or ``sha256`` |
| | | The server will return the hash in a header named either: | |
| | | ``X-Hash-MD5``, ``X-Hash-SHA1``, or ``X-Hash-SHA256``. | |
+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| OC-Total-Length | | Contains the total size of the file during a chunk upload. | ``4052412`` |
| | | This allow the server to abort faster if the remaining | |
| | | user's quota is not enough. | |
+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| OC-Chunked | | Used for legacy chunk upload to differentiate a regular | Deprecated ⚠️ |
| | | upload from a chunked upload. It allowed checking for quota | |
