XSOAR 8 API - Attachment upload with entryID

[Moh.Yasser]

The code below, creates an incident with attachment uploaded but in the incident itself, when I see the context, I dont see any file. 

Since there is no entryID for the file, I cannot read the attachment and also cannot run the playbooks. 

Any change I need to make to make the attachment appear as File with entryID?

hi @Moh.Yasser ,

After the creating the incident, you can get the incident id. (res.json().get(id)) and run the below something like below.

file = "/abc/xyz/test.txt"

files = {

'file' : ('test.txt', open(file, 'rb'), 'text/plain')

}

data = {

'fileName' : 'test.txt',

'fileComment' : "",

'showMediaFile' : "false"

}

url = f"https://xsoarurl/xsoar/entry/upload/incident_id"

r = requests.post(url, data=data, files=files, headers=headers, verify=False)

@gyldz  Thanks for the reply!

It gives the below as response. I gave in the incident ID not sure why we are getting this.

{'id': 'noInv', 'status': 400, 'title': 'Could not find investigations', 'detail': 'Could not find investigation', 'error': 'Could not find investigations:Could not find investigation', 'encrypted': False, 'multires': None}
