I'm an engineer at Kinvey. To use the REST API, you need to first get an API URL to upload by making a GET request to:

/blob/:appKey/upload-loc/:fileName

That will return a response with the following object:

{ "URI" : <externalLocation> }

Exctract response.body.URI, and perform a PUT request to that URI. Set the content-length header, and pass your binary file as the request.body.

A couple of notes about file upload:

  • The URI retrieved by upload-loc is only valid for 30 seconds
  • The library only supports files < 64 MB in size.
