Excerpt

Update a media file to the dialogportal™ Media Archive.

Media A media in the archive is contained in a folder structure, and file and folder names are unique within their respective folders.

When attempting to create a media file with a name that already exists in the folder, the autoName field is used to determine the correct action. When autoName is omitted or set to false, a 303 response will be returned including a location header containing the URL to the existing media file. When autoName is true, the file will be created with an auto-incremented "index" appended to the file name, "file_1.txt", "file_2.txt" etc.

To add new folders simply include them in your folderPath. Folders that do not already exist will be created.

archive can be searched and updated based on fileName and folderPath fields.

Fields - content, contentType and description are optional fields that can be updated. If a field is omitted, then this field is not updated. If all three fields (content, contentType and description) are omitted, then nothings get updated.

A media file with this name already exists in the folder.

The response includes a location header containing the URL to the existing media file
