Can I use folder path to upload a file into Alfresco using Rest API or any other service. If yes can you please provide details

[dsingaraju]

There is a requirement in the project that the calling application do not have guids and there is possibility of duplicate folder names. 

Can I use the REST API with folder path to upload the files to a specific folder with guid.

If yes, can you please point to  API (url) and documentation.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Dilip

Hi dilip singaraju‌,

1. Please look this http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s/script/org/alfresco/repository/upload/upload.post there are multiple option like  "uploaddirectory" parameter which accept folderPath OR  "destination" parameter which accept folder NodeRef.
2. Another approach Alfresco Chrome Extension to upload files!. This Chrome Extension might be helpful to you

Thanks,

Prachi shah
