attachments

Most of the time you do not need this command: --attach on tickets create and tickets comments create uploads and attaches a file in one step. Use attachments upload when the file has to be attached by a later call than the one that uploads it — a script that uploads once and reuses the id, or a request you build yourself against the API.

Sample output on this page is shown as the --json envelope, which is reproducible. Pretty tables depend on your terminal width. See Output formats.

attachments upload

Uploads one file and prints the signed_id that attaches it. The file is sent straight to storage rather than through the API.

neetodesk attachments upload ~/Downloads/report.pdf

This command takes no flags beyond the global ones.

{
  "data": {
    "signed_id": "eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6IjEyMyJ9fQ==",
    "filename": "report.pdf",
    "content_type": "application/pdf",
    "byte_size": 20481,
    "checksum": "Y2hlY2tzdW1leGFtcGxl",
    "upload_url": "https://neeto-desk.s3.amazonaws.com/3ieihu6erxcialumauhj1pqs07hr?X-Amz-Signature=...",
    "upload_headers": { "Content-Type": "application/pdf" }
  }
}

Capture just the id with --quiet, then attach it through the API:

SIGNED_ID=$(neetodesk attachments upload ~/Downloads/report.pdf --quiet --json \
  | python3 -c 'import json,sys; print(json.load(sys.stdin)["signed_id"])')

A signed_id is only accepted in the workspace that uploaded it, and a file that is never attached to anything is cleaned up automatically.
