Upload a file into file storages from ESP32

1

Hi community,
Is there a way to upload a file txt into file storages from ESP32?
I have found a way to upload from another storage (not thinger) by using FTP connection, but I haven’t found the FTP port on Thinger. Could you help me please?
Have a nice day!

Hi,

I guess it can be done by the api, check this → Swagger UI

You need to use a HTTP client that supports the PUT method on the esp32.

Hope this helps.

Yes, ESP32 supports the PUT request. I’m testing it but I get this response:

{
“error”: {
“message”: “unauthorized”
}
}

Error code number: 401

I’ve found a “auth button” where insert my credential, but there are two input text (client_id and client_secret). Where can i find this information?

do not consider the post previously. I solved

Sorry, I’ve have a problem with post request: on Swagger for creating a file I need to send a post request without sending a JSON string content.
If I do it, I receive status 200 but not load the file. I read other API request and in every post I need to insert a Json string inside the content. Into API command for creating file there isn’t this string. If I try insert a custom JSON string, I receive this response:

{
“error”: {
“message”: “invalid schema”
}
}

What’s the correct schema?

Hi @Salvatore_Scarantino

In this case the body of the request would be:

{"files":
    ["new_file"]
}

If you wanted to create a folder/directory:

{"folders":
    ["new_folder"]
}

You can also use the inspect tools of your browser to analyze the requests made by the platform, as the Swagger API may not be fully documented.

Regards!

I am trying to do something similar by uploading a file from ESP32 to storage. I managed to use the API for other things but I cannot find out how to upload a specific file.
