REST API group file upload

[Thilo Boehm]

Hi all,

I am trying to upload files to a group folder via the REST API.

In the documentation (9.4.1) I found:

/groups/{groupKey}/folder

POST

acceptable request representations:

• application/x-www-form-urlencoded

But if I try this URL I always get a 403/Forbidden response.

In the sourcecode I don't find any hint to this REST-Call.

Any hints?

Kind regards

Thilo

Hi Thilo

Just tested, works as expected. 

- make sure after folder is no slash: 

  e.g. .../restapi/groups/45547525/folder and not …/restapi/groups/45547525/folder/

- does the user have access rights to this group?

- is the folder tool enabled for this group?

- did you use the authentication mechanism? You can use restapi/auth/username?password=1234 to generate an X-OLAT-TOKEN for the following requests or add the authentication to every request using the standard http authentication mechanism.

Cheers

Florian

Hi Florian,

yes to all of your questions.

It looks like it has something to do with the Content-Type mulipart/form-data.

If I just add a file (a jpg for example) OpenOLAT can not resolve the filename at Line 277 in VFSWebservice.java:

String filename = partsReader.getValue("filename");

It works if a add another part to the request with the name "filename" and the filename as content.

That's a bit strange, as the filename is already available in the Content-Type Header:

------=_Part_1_13739372.1408108612819

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="filename"

test2.jpg

------=_Part_1_13739372.1408108612819

Content-Type: image/jpeg; name=cloudzone1.jpg

Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="cloudzone1.jpg"; filename="cloudzone1.jpg"

Regards

Thilo
