Hello

I'm trying to upload new records to a contact list using python, but I am not sure how I have to make the request (I always get 400 error, bad request) . Here is the code I've tried:

url = "https://apps.mypurecloud.ie/uploads/v2/contactlist" with open("example.csv", "rb") as f: headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token} body = { "id" : contactlistid, "file": f.read(), "fileType" : "contactlist", "contact-id-name": "Id"

} r = requests.post(url, data=body, headers=headers)

Could someone tell me how can I do the request? Thank you

Hello,

The request's content-type must be multipart/form-data.

I am a newbie on Python so I hope I haven't forgotten something below. I just tried the following and it seems to work.

2 things to change in your request: files=body in the request (files is to have multipart/form-data), and use of tuples (None, xxxx) for parameters other than file.

body = { "id": (None, contactlistid), "file": f.read(), "fileType": (None, "contactlist"), "contact-id-name": (None, "Id") } r = requests.post(url, files=body, headers=headers)

import requests import traceback try : auth_token = 'UR AUTH TOKEN' url = 'https://apps.mypurecloud.com/uploads/v2/contactlist' data = {'id':'ID of the file that you created with headers', 'fileType':'contactlist', 'contact-id-name':'UR CONTACT ID Field '} files = {'file': open('test.csv', 'rb')}

files = [ ('file', (filename, open('test.csv','rb'), text/csv)) ]

headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer '+authtoken} r = requests.post(url, data=data, files=files, headers=headers, verify=True) print(r.statuscode) print(r.headers) print(r.content); except Exception as er: print('exception') traceback.print_exc()
