Create a file attachment on a case or Cloud resource. The attachment must have the following fields set: filename. EXAMPLES: cURL: shell echo "This text is in a file I'm uploading using CSAPI." \ > "./example_file.txt" case="projects/some-project/cases/43594844" curl \ --header "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \ --data-binary @"./example_file.txt" \ "https://cloudsupport.googleapis.com/upload/v2beta/$case/attachments?attachment.filename=uploaded_via_curl.txt" Python: python import googleapiclient.discovery api_version = "v2" supportApiService = googleapiclient.discovery.build( serviceName="cloudsupport", version=api_version, discoveryServiceUrl=f"https://cloudsupport.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest?version={api_version}", ) file_path = "./example_file.txt" with open(file_path, "w") as file: file.write( "This text is inside a file I'm going to upload using the Cloud Support API.", ) request = supportApiService.media().upload( parent="projects/some-project/cases/43595344", media_body=file_path ) request.uri = request.uri.split("?")[0] + "?attachment.filename=uploaded_via_python.txt" print(request.execute())

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: cloudsupport2-beta --scope <scope> media upload ...

Required Scalar Argument

  • <parent> (string)
    • Required. The name of the case or Cloud resource to which the attachment should be attached.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

CreateAttachmentRequest:
  attachment:
    create-time: string
    creator:
      display-name: string
      email: string
      google-support: boolean
      username: string
    filename: string
    mime-type: string
    name: string
    size-bytes: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r .attachment create-time=et
    • Output only. The time at which the attachment was created.
  • creator display-name=sadipscing
    • The name to display for the actor. If not provided, it is inferred from credentials supplied during case creation. When an email is provided, a display name must also be provided. This will be obfuscated if the user is a Google Support agent.
  • email=stet
    • The email address of the actor. If not provided, it is inferred from the credentials supplied during case creation. When a name is provided, an email must also be provided. If the user is a Google Support agent, this is obfuscated. This field is deprecated. Use username field instead.
  • google-support=false
    • Output only. Whether the actor is a Google support actor.

  • username=duo

    • Output only. The username of the actor. It may look like an email or other format provided by the identity provider. If not provided, it is inferred from the credentials supplied. When a name is provided, a username must also be provided. If the user is a Google Support agent, this will not be set.

  • .. filename=vero

    • The filename of the attachment (e.g. &#34;graph.jpg&#34;).
  • mime-type=vero
    • Output only. The MIME type of the attachment (e.g. text/plain).
  • name=invidunt
    • Output only. The resource name of the attachment.
  • size-bytes=stet
    • Output only. The size of the attachment in bytes.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Required Upload Flags

This method supports the upload of data, which requires all of the following flags to be set:

  • -u simple
    • simple - Upload media all at once.
  • -f file
    • Path to file to upload. It must be seekable.

The following flag may be set:

  • -m mime
    • the mime type, like 'application/octet-stream', which is the default

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.

  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.

  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.

  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP

  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.

  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.

  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

  • -p quota-user=string

    • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.

  • -p upload-type=string

    • Legacy upload protocol for media (e.g. "media", "multipart").

  • -p upload-protocol=string

    • Upload protocol for media (e.g. "raw", "multipart").
