Send files

Before you construct a sendfiles request to transfer AS2 files, obtain the identifier of the AS2 connection that provides access to the AS2 server. To get the connection ID, you can send a GET request using the connection resource. The connection resource can return information for each of your organization's connections.

POST Request

To transfer files, include the connection ID in the following URI.

mftsaas/api/v1/sendfiles/<connection ID>

Include the following information in the request:

Field	Type	Required	Description
targetConnectionType	String	Yes	Connection type. To transfer files to an AS2 server, specify "as2".
srcDirectoryPath	String	Yes	Directory path to the files you want to transfer.
srcFilePattern	String	Yes	Source file name pattern. Specify a file name pattern to identify which files to send. You can use the asterisk (*) wildcard in the file name pattern.
deleteSourceFiles	String		Whether to delete source files after a successful POST request. Use one of the following values: true. Delete source files. false. Save source files. Default is true.

For example, to transfer the files that begin with "file_" that are located in the workspace directory, you might use the following request:

POST <serverUrl>/mftsaas/api/v1/sendfiles/<connection ID> 
Accept:application/json
IDS-SESSION-ID: <icSessionId or INFA-SESSION-ID>
{
         "targetConnectionType":   "as2",
         "srcDirectoryPath":  "C:\\server\\userdata\\workspace",
         "srcFilePattern":  "file_*“
}
