createAttachment method

Future<ContentArray> createAttachment({ required String id, String? status, required dynamic body, })

Adds an attachment to a piece of content. This method only adds a new attachment. If you want to update an existing attachment, use Create or update attachments.

Note, you must set a X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck header on the request for this method, otherwise it will be blocked. This protects against XSRF attacks, which is necessary as this method accepts multipart/form-data.

The media type 'multipart/form-data' is defined in RFC 7578. Most client libraries have classes that make it easier to implement multipart posts, like the MultipartEntityBuilder Java class provided by Apache HTTP Components.

Note, according to RFC 7578, in the case where the form data is text, the charset parameter for the "text/plain" Content-Type may be used to indicate the character encoding used in that part. In the case of this API endpoint, the comment body parameter should be sent with type=text/plain and charset=utf-8 values. This will force the charset to be UTF-8.

Example: This curl command attaches a file ('example.txt') to a container (id='123') with a comment and minorEdits=true.

curl -D-
  -u admin:admin
  -X POST
  -H 'X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck'
  -F 'file=@"example.txt"'
  -F 'minorEdit="true"'
  -F 'comment="Example attachment comment"; type=text/plain;
charset=utf-8'

Permissions required: Permission to update the content.

Implementation

Future<ContentArray> createAttachment(
    {required String id, String? status, required dynamic body}) async {
  return ContentArray.fromJson(await _client.send(
    'post',
    'wiki/rest/api/content/{id}/child/attachment',
    pathParameters: {
      'id': id,
    },
    queryParameters: {
      if (status != null) 'status': status,
    },
    body: body,
  ));
}
