File ID
The ID of the bot the file belongs to
Unique key for the file. Must be unique across the bot (and the integration, when applicable).
URL to retrieve the file content. This URL will be ready to use once the file is uploaded.
If the file has a public_content policy, this will contain the permanent public URL to retrieve the file, otherwise this will contain a temporary pre-signed URL to download the file which should be used shortly after retrieving and should not be stored long-term as the URL will expire after a short timeframe.
File size in bytes. Non-null if file upload status is "COMPLETE".
MIME type of the file's content
File creation timestamp in ISO 8601 format
File last update timestamp in ISO 8601 format
Access policies configured for the file.
integrations, public_content Whether the file was requested to be indexed for search or not.
Status of the file. If the status is upload_pending, the file content has not been uploaded yet. The status will be set to upload_completed once the file content has been uploaded successfully.
If the upload failed for any reason (e.g. exceeding the storage quota or the maximum file size limit) the status will be set to upload_failed and the reason for the failure will be available in the failedStatusReason field of the file.
However, if the file has been uploaded and the index attribute was set to true on the file, the status will immediately transition to the indexing_pending status (the upload_completed status step will be skipped).
Once the indexing is completed and the file is ready to be used for searching its status will be set to indexing_completed. If the indexing failed the status will be set to indexing_failed and the reason for the failure will be available in the failedStatusReason field.
