Request Params
| Key | Datatype | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
uploadSessionId | string | If you are calling this method to commit a file that was uploaded in parts, this value contains the upload session LUID that was generated by a call to Initiate File Upload. If this value is not included, the server assumes that the body of the request contains the file to be published. | |
flowType | string | tfl or tflx to indicate whether you have uploaded a flow file (tfl) or a packaged flow file (tflx). This value is only necessary and required if you upload a file in multiple parts. In the Publish Flow call after completing file upload, specify the file type. | |
overwrite | null | true to overwrite a data source that has the same name, or false to fail if the specified data source already exists. The default is false. If overwrite-flag is set to true but the data source doesn't already exist, the operation succeeds. | |
| You can include both the overwrite and append parameters in a request, but they cannot both be true. |
