Upload a file

POST https://api.appmixer.com/files

Upload file to Appmixer. Uploads by chunks are supported, and whether if sent file is treated as a chunk or a new file depends on the headers sent. Also, Content-type must be set to multipart/form-data.

Headers

Name	Type	Description
Content-type	string	Must be set to multipart/form-data
uploader-file-id	string	If set, the current file will be appended as a chunk to the file specified by this. If not present, a new file will be created. The response includes the resulting file's ID, so it can be used in subsequent requests to add chunks to the generated file.
uploader-file-name	string	The name of the file. This will be ignored in case that uploader-file-id header is present.
uploader-chunk-size	string	The size in bytes of the file/chunk being uploaded.
uploader-chunk-number	string	This header is uploader-chunk-number. The ordinal number of this chunk - e.g. the first chunk is 1, the second is 2 and so on.
uploader-chunks-total	string	This header is uploader-chunks-total. The total number of chunks that compose the file. If set to 1, it means that this is the complete file

Request Body

Name	Type	Description
file	string	The file/chunk to be uploaded

200 The fileId inside the response can be used to upload more chunks for the same file, or in other endpoints to reference this file.
