[xwiki-devs] create attachment with Rest API

Hello, I'm trying to create an attachment on a page from a URL to an image, using JavaScript and the RESTful API. I'm not sure I'm doing it correctly of if this can be done but here's where I'm at: httpRequest.open('PUT', '/xwiki/rest/wikis/XWiki/spaces/Main/pages/Daily All-Source Digest – 2013-01-05T07:30P24/attachments/Blade Header UnClassified-S.png'); httpRequest.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/xml'); httpRequest.send('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><attachment xmlns="http://www.xwiki.org"><name>"Blade Header UnClassified-S.png"</name><mimeType>"image/png"</mimeType><xwikiAbsoluteUrl>"https://domain/xwiki/bin/download/ColorThemes/Nightfall/Blade%20Header%20UnClassified-S.png"</xwikiAbsoluteUrl></attachment>'); This example is actually using a URL to a preexisting Attachment, just seeing if I'm getting permission errors on the server some how. I've also tried random publicly accessible images. I get a 200 response signaling an attachment is created and a link appears on the page in the attachment section but the image won't display because 'it contains errors'. Can I submit attachments this way? Do I need the actual image data, encoded somehow? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/create-attachment-with-Rest-API-tp7583867… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
