Create Custom File From Upload

Upload a new custom file. You can use custom files when merging multiple PDFs together.

Before calling this API endpoint, you must first request a presigned upload URL, and upload a file to our S3 bucket. (The example code includes this step.) You then pass the file key to this API endpoint to create a custom file record.

HTTP Request

POST https://api.docspring.com/api/v1/custom_files

Authentication

You must send an Authorization header with the value Basic followed by base 64 encoded token_id:token_secret.

For example: Authorization: Basic dG9rZW5faWQ6dG9rZW5fc2VjcmV0Cg==

See the Authentication documentation for more information.

Parameters

The request body must be a JSON object with the following properties:

  • cache_id (string): The ID of the file you uploaded from a presigned URL

            }

            // Create a custom file record from your uploaded file
            // ----------------------------------------------------------

            }

            CreateCustomFileData customFileData = new CreateCustomFileData()

            // Get the custom file ID from: customFileData.Id
            // You can now use this custom file in a combinePdfs request.
            Debug.WriteLine(customFileData.Id);
        }
