File Upload

The File Storage will assume the content type of an asset automatically. However, you can specify specific file content types like image/jpeg, image/png, e.t.c

​

Initial requirements

• Setup a JigsawStack account (if you don’t have an account already)
• Get your public and secret API keys from here.
• Install the Node.js SDK or Python SDK

​

Upload a file

​

Overwriting files

When uploading a file with a filename that already exists, the default behavior is to return a 400 file already exists error. If you want to overwrite a file that already exists, set overwrite to true

​

Content Type

By default, the File Storage will assume the content type of an asset automatically. If you want to specify the content type for your asset simply pass the contentType option during upload.

​

Make your uploaded file accessible

Uploaded files are private by default. To make them public or accessible, attach your public key to the x-api-key query parameter.

​

Use uploaded file across other JigsawStack APIs

You can use an uploaded file across other JigsawStack APIs by using the file key and attaching the value to the file_store_key parameter on any API that supports it.
