Canvas Create Files

• namestring

  Required
  The name of the file being uploaded. Any UTF-8 name is allowed. Path separators such as '/' and '\' will be treated as part of the filename, not as path elements.
• sizeinteger
  The size of the file in bytes. This field is recommended as it will allow you to catch quota issues before uploading the raw file data.
• context_idstring

  Required
  The unique identifier of the context entity (e.g., course ID, user ID, folder ID, group ID, or account ID) where the file will be created.
• content_typestring
  The content type (MIME type) of the file. If not provided, it will be guessed based on the file extension.
• context_typestring

  Required
  The context in which to create the file. Valid contexts are 'courses', 'users', 'folders', 'groups', or 'accounts'.
• on_duplicatestring
  How to handle duplicate filenames. If 'overwrite' (default), the existing file will be overwritten. If 'rename', the new file will be renamed to avoid conflicts.
• parent_folder_idstring
  The ID of the folder to store the file in. If not provided and the context is not a folder, the file will be stored in the root folder of the context. If this parameter is passed and refers to a non-existent folder, the API returns an error.
• parent_folder_pathstring
  The path of the folder to store the file in. The path separator is forward slash (/), e.g., 'course files/week 1'. If this parameter is passed and the folder does not yet exist, it will be created automatically.
