POST /api/v1/feeds/{id}/files

Push a file to an HTTPS-push feed (the feed's data:load scope).

  • Scope data:load:<data set>
  • Legacy keys
  • operationId dataFeedFile

The token needs the scope data:load:<data set>, and the person or service account behind it needs the matching privileges and account permissions, exactly as on the screens. See Scopes.

Legacy keys. Also accepts the deprecated legacy data API keys (vst_…), with Deprecation and Sunset headers. Move to a service account.

Per data set. The scope names the data set, e.g. data:load:prices. A token may load only the data sets it was given.

Status codes and errors

Errors are application/problem+json (RFC 9457) with a stable code to program against; the detail says what to fix. See Errors.
