Upload File

POST/api/v1/datasets/{datasetRid}/files:upload

Uploads a File to an existing Dataset. The body of the request must contain the binary content of the file and the Content-Type header must be application/octet-stream.

By default the file is uploaded to a new transaction on the default branch - master for most enrollments. If the file already exists only the most recent version will be visible in the updated view.

Advanced Usage

See Datasets Core Concepts for details on using branches and transactions.

To upload a file to a specific Branch specify the Branch's identifier as branchId. A new transaction will be created and committed on this branch. By default the TransactionType will be UPDATE, to override this default specify transactionType in addition to branchId. See createBranch to create a custom branch.

To upload a file on a manually opened transaction specify the Transaction's resource identifier as transactionRid. This is useful for uploading multiple files in a single transaction. See createTransaction to open a transaction.

Third-party applications using this endpoint via OAuth2 must request the following operation scope: api:datasets-write.
