Hello,

i need some hints on how to use the File Uploader plugin via API.

My guess is that i have to upload the file to Google Drive by myself and than add the file id returned by the Google API as value for the additional field that is the File Uploader.

Can you confirm this or is there another way to do it?

Regards, Henning

So you mean it is not possible in any way to add an image to the booking via API, correct?

My assumption was i upload a file to google drive and provide a share link to the API as value of the additional field the file uploader is related to.

File upload is not available within our JSON RPC API, however it is supported by the REST API. We are working on a new version of documentation for the APIs, soon to be deployed to public
