Job Data - Upload
When accessing /JobData via POST, the Slingshot API Server will expect the request body to consist of a compressed container (a ZIP file) that contains Job Data from a Field Computer. Complex file with multiple directories zipped into a single archive is not supported by the API.
The request body should be encoded using multipart/form-data standards with the following entry defined:
- FileName: this entry will contain the file contents as well as the name of the file
If successful, the Slingshot API Server will respond with a HTTP 201 Created message and the URI of the newly created Job Data. The returned URI can be used to retrieve the details of the Job Data.
