Attachments

[John7]

As mentioned in this documentation , tried giving properties=hs_attachment_ids . Eventhough I have attachment , the value of 'hs_attachment_ids' is null.

In a record , I have an attachment . How do I get all the attachments with its parent record details through API (private app)  without knowing fileIDs?

Hey, @John7 👋 Thanks for your question. There isn't a direct endpoint we can use. The main issue is how files are stored as attachments to a Note on an object record when uploaded via the API. 

There isn't a way around having the file ID to retrieve and download files. You'll need to use the Get a Signed URL to Access a Private File endpoint with these file IDs to generate a download link. 

My test requests looked like this:

• curl --request GET \
   --url 'https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v4/objects/0-1/901/associations/notes?limit=500' \
   --header 'authorization: Bearer NOPE
• curl --request GET \
   --url 'https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/notes/30561996841?properties=hs_attachment_ids&archived=false' \
   --header 'authorization: Bearer NOPE'
  
  Response
  HTTP 200
