Recipe

Create a public file

1. Use a `blob` parameter to set blob fields

curl -X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "QB-Token: f8dd521e8a88b0df7e0c359dc3de73fc15012bba" \
-d '{  
  "blob":{  
  }
}' \
https://api.quickblox.com/blobs.json

2. Set a content type of the file

Use a content-type parameter to set a content type of the file.

curl -X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "QB-Token: f8dd521e8a88b0df7e0c359dc3de73fc15012bba" \
-d '{  
  "blob":{  
    "content_type":"image/jpeg",
  }
}' \
https://api.quickblox.com/blobs.json

3. Set a name of the file

Use a name parameter to set the name of the file.

curl -X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "QB-Token: f8dd521e8a88b0df7e0c359dc3de73fc15012bba" \
-d '{  
  "blob":{  
    "content_type":"image/jpeg",
    "name":"my_cat.jpeg",
  }
}' \
https://api.quickblox.com/blobs.json

4. Set a file as public

Set a public parameter as true to make a file public.

curl -X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "QB-Token: f8dd521e8a88b0df7e0c359dc3de73fc15012bba" \
-d '{  
  "blob":{  
    "content_type":"image/jpeg",
    "name":"my_cat.jpeg",
    "public":true,
  }
}' \
https://api.quickblox.com/blobs.json

5. Set tags to a file

Use a tag_list to assign tags to a file.

curl -X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "QB-Token: f8dd521e8a88b0df7e0c359dc3de73fc15012bba" \
-d '{  
  "blob":{  
    "content_type":"image/jpeg",
    "name":"my_cat.jpeg",
    "public":true,
    "tag_list":"web,android"
  }
}' \
https://api.quickblox.com/blobs.json

6. As a result, the API returns a newly created public file.

{
  "blob": {
    "id": 10070416,
    "uid": "20456a9676674f4ca950d963dfca630e00",
