files/v3/files error

CRedmon — Mon, 07 Jun 2021 22:49:19 GMT

Hello,

I am trying to create a file using the new /files/v3/files API. When I am passing in the formData to the API I am getting the following reponse:

{

status: 'error',

message: 'Could not determine name from file',

correlationId: '473023e1-6489-450e-81ed-feacdc2fbfb7',

category: 'BAD_REQUEST'

}

I am creating the file and then planning on attaching the file to note to append to deals.

Could you give me some insight on this?

Thanks!

@CRedmon ,

Mind adding the json body as well as the full request uri that you are submitting to? (minus a hapikey)

@tominal maybe able to assist when there are more details 😀

Hi @dennisedson ,

I am submitting form data to the api because it is a "multipart/form-data" so here is the best I can do.

FormData object:

{

file: <buffer>,
fileName: <string>,
options:

{

access: "PUBLIC_INDEXABLE",

ttl: "P3M",

overwrite: false,

duplicateValidationStrategy: "NONE",

duplicateValidationScope: "ENTIRE_PORTAL",

}

From Axios request:
url: '/files/v3/files',

method: 'post',

data: FormData {

_overheadLength: 425,

_valueLength: 4297,

_valuesToMeasure: [],

writable: false,

readable: true,

dataSize: 0,

maxDataSize: 2097152,

pauseStreams: true,

_released: true,

_streams: [],

_currentStream: null,

_insideLoop: false,

_pendingNext: false,

_boundary: '--------------------------264236909180776376341869',

_events: [Object: null prototype],

_eventsCount: 1

headers: {

Accept: 'application/json, text/plain, */*',

'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data; boundary=--------------------------264236909180776376341869',

Authorization: 'Bearer <valid oauth token>',

'User-Agent': 'axios/0.21.1'

baseURL: 'https://api.hubapi.com/',

@tjoyce Hi! I am not a php developer but after looking at your post I did some digging and found what I was missing. In my form body I was missing another parameter on the file property to pass the filename (hence my error).

For all the nodejs devs out there:
