Endpoints#
Create many.
Requires scope properties:write.
| Name | In | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Idempotency-Key | header | string | Makes the write safely retryable. Any unique string per logical operation; a UUID is fine.
The failure this prevents is specific: the request succeeds, the response is lost to a timeout, you retry, and the customer is billed twice. With a key, the retry returns the original response - same status, same body, same id - and creates nothing.
The body is part of the key's identity. Reusing a key with a different body is a bug on your side, not a retry, and answers 409 idempotency_replay rather than silently handing back the old response. Keys are remembered for 24 hours. |

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| filerequired | string | The file. Exactly one part named file; a second one, or file[], is 400 invalid_request so an idempotent retry can never half-succeed. Empty is refused. Over the cap (the smaller of APIV2_MAX_UPLOAD_BYTES, 64 MB by default, and PHP's upload_max_filesize / post_max_size) is 413 payload_too_large naming the limit that applied. |
| filename | string(255) | Overrides the part's file name. |
| notes | text | Free text shown beside the file. |
| filedefinitionid | integer | Only when the parent accepts more than one list. Anything the parent does not accept is 422 unknown_value naming the accepted ids. |
| filecategoryid | integer | Category by id. |
| filecategory | string(255) | Category by name. Sent with filecategoryid and disagreeing is 422 conflicting_reference. |
| Status | Code | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | unknown_parameter | A form field that is not on the AttachmentUpload schema. |
| 400 | invalid_type | filedefinitionid or filecategoryid that is not an integer. |
| 404 | not_found | No unit with that id in this company. |
| 409 | upload_limit_reached | This file list allows a fixed number of files on an unit and it is full. Remove one first. |
| 413 | payload_too_large | The file is over the cap. The body names the limit that applied. |
| 415 | multipart_required | The body was not multipart/form-data. |
| 422 | unknown_value | filedefinitionid is not one this unit accepts, or the category does not exist in this company. |
