I am trying to insert object into LakeFS repo with java client. I am trying to insert object using postman!! I am facing one issue !! I am not able to understand what I need to insert into path and into physical address while sending in body. Any help would be appreciated Getting this response after hitting this API { "message": "parameter \"path\" in query has an error: value is required but missing: value is required but missing" }

Hi @Omkar Patil This is the signature of the

uploadObjectCall

method of the

ObjectsApi

java class:

uploadObjectCall(String repository, String branch, String path, String storageClass, String ifNoneMatch, File content, final ApiCallback _callback)

The repository and branch parts are quite easy to understand.

path

is the namespace under your branch, meaning the if you have a repository called

myrepo

and a branch called

mybranch

then for

<lakefs://myrepo/mybranch/some/name/space>

the path is:

some/name/space

I am trying through postman

Using Postman will be much more complicated than using the Java client. You need to add the authentication headers and their values (after you generated them) and also use the user credentials. It would be easier to use the Java client that does that for you. Also, the image you sent is using the response format of that API call as the request…

Yes I have added authentication headers

@Omkar Patil, also note that the path parameter when uploading an object is to be given using a query parameter. The content of the request should be used for the file's actual content. See the API reference for how to upload an object.

@Yoni Augarten I am following the same document but I am not able to figure exact value for path in body

The path is where you want to upload the object to, in your repository.

@Yoni Augarten I am checking in network tab!! I copied into postman the same payload but it is not working.. facing the same error

Thanks for the information. In order for the community to benefit from our conversation in the future, let's keep this in the chat.

This is the UI image and payload

@Omkar Patil I'm taking a look. One second please

@Omkar Patil from the looks of it , it seems like you're trying to pass the response parameters as the request.

Thank you your help @Oz Katz!! I tried with adding header as Content-Type and value as Multipart/form-data but I am facing the error "message": "no multipart boundary param in Content-Type"

@Omkar Patil, as @Jonathan Rosenberg mentioned before - uploading an object via Postman requires some knowledge, in particular sending multipart requests. As suggested, using one of our clients (Java, Python, or the AWS CLI) can simplify things. If you are sure you want to use Postman, you can use this guide to see how you can copy a request from the web console to Postman.
