When you are looking at the user's files, you see a folder for the different courses they are enrolled in and in that list there is a "my_files" folder. Your "testfolder" should be inside that folder with the file in it. In my use case I am using a folder called "images" and this is what it ends up looking like:
Thanks Kenneth, We have similar file structure as yours, but we don't have sub_folder 'my_files'. but even though I manually add the folder 'my_files' under root folder My Files, then pass in the parent_folder_path="my_files/test". after uploadfile api call, the new folder 'unfiled' is created, and the file is uploaded in 'unfiled' folder, while not in the expected my_files folder.
Here below is the cUrl I used to call the API:
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url ); //url for api/v1/users/{id}/files
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $tokenHeader);//Authorization
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, count($fields)); // TRUE
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $step1_params);
//step1_params :name=test.pdf&size=228394&parent_folder_path=test&content_type=application%2Fpdf"
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); // capture the response to a variable
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
What does the upload_params look like in your uploadfile api call response? One place I noted in the upload_params on my response, the key is indicated under ../attachments/, but canvas API document give sample response result as ""key": ".../files/testfile". but not sure if related.
array(9) {
'AWSAccessKeyId' =>string(20) "testid"
'Filename' => string(50) "test.pdf"
'key' =>string(96) "account_45110000000000001/attachments/2308001/test.pdf"
...}
Thanks!
