Offers an existing upload session to a signed-in person with asset write access in its workspace. Only the same OAuth connection or API key that created the session can request this fallback. The file, metadata, capacity reservation and one-hour deadline stay unchanged. Repeating the request returns the same page for a pending session. A non-pending session returns its current state without a browser URL. Enabling the handoff allows any currently authorized person in that workspace to complete or cancel it, independently of the original connection's continued access. The person must select matching file bytes; opening the page never publishes them.

पैरामीटर

upload_idstring

ID of the media-library upload session.

Response Payload

session
object
आवश्यक

The original upload session and any saved publication receipt. In this response, session.next is empty; follow the top-level next steps.

session.id
string
आवश्यक
session.state
string
आवश्यक

Upload progress. Pending accepts a transfer; finalizing is checking and publishing it. Completed has a saved result. Rejected, cancelled and expired allow no new upload instruction or publication. An already issued upload URL can remain usable until its expiry.

Possible values: pending, finalizing, completed, rejected, cancelled, expired

session.expires_at
string
आवश्यक

Absolute session expiry. Completion must finish before this deadline; starting it or refreshing an upload instruction does not extend it.

session.name
string
आवश्यक

Frozen display name for a newly published asset.

session.alt_text
nullable string
आवश्यक

Frozen alternative text, or null when omitted.

session.folder_id
nullable string
आवश्यक

Frozen destination folder, or null for the library root.

session.file
object
आवश्यक

Exact properties of the original file. Calculate size and SHA-256 from its bytes before creating a session. Images allow up to 5,242,880 bytes; other supported media allow up to 25,000,000 bytes.

चाइल्ड एट्रिब्यूट दिखाएँ
session.result
nullable object
आवश्यक

Saved publication receipt, or null until completed.

चाइल्ड एट्रिब्यूट दिखाएँ
session.last_error
nullable object
आवश्यक

Last completion error, or null when no failure is recorded.

चाइल्ड एट्रिब्यूट दिखाएँ
session.next
array of object
आवश्यक

Available next steps for this session.

चाइल्ड एट्रिब्यूट दिखाएँ
session.next.kind
string
आवश्यक

What you do about this step.

  • operation: call the operation named in operation, then read again.
  • external: act somewhere this API does not reach, then read again.
  • wait: nothing is asked of you, so read again later.
  • terminal: nothing you do resolves this, so stop retrying.

Tolerate a value you do not recognize: show the description and offer no action.

Possible values (may grow over time): operation, external, wait, terminal

session.next.description
string
आवश्यक

A short, human-readable label for the step, suitable for display.

session.next.operation
string

The operationId to call. Present only when kind is operation. The operation's own schema says how to call it; this says only which one, and what to address it with.

session.next.params
object

The parameters that address the operation, by name: {"sender_id": "…"} for an operation on /v1/sms/senders/{sender_id}/requirements. A parameter the operation takes in its query string is given the same way, so an operation addressed as ?subject_id= carries {"subject_id": "…"}. Every parameter the call needs is here, whether its value came from the thing you were acting on or is fixed for this step, so you can make the call from this object alone. Present only when kind is operation and the operation names a subject. A request body, when the operation takes one, is described by the operation's own schema and never appears here.

session.next.url
string

A URL to open. Present only when kind is external, and only when the step has one. An external step whose description says to go and do something with no URL to open is normal.

session.asset
nullable object
आवश्यक

Canonical asset when available, or null before completion or when unavailable.

चाइल्ड एट्रिब्यूट दिखाएँ
browser_url
nullable string
आवश्यक

Bird page for a pending session, or null when it no longer accepts an upload. The link grants no access; the person must sign in and have asset write permission in the workspace.

next
array of object
आवश्यक

Ordered steps to finish the fallback or read its outcome.
