Asset Version
Asset Versions are specific instances of static files that you can host at a particular domain in an Environment.
The steps to create Assets are as follows:
- Create an Asset
- Create an Asset Version (this resource)
You will need the Asset Version SID that the create request returns to include this Asset in a Build.
Asset Version properties

|---|---|
sid
|
The unique string that we created to identify the Asset Version resource. |
account_sid
|
The SID of the Account that created the Asset Version resource. |
service_sid
|
The SID of the Service that the Asset Version resource is associated with. |
asset_sid

The URL-friendly string by which the asset version can be referenced. All paths begin with a forward slash ('/'). If an Asset Version creation request is submitted with a path not containing a leading slash, the path will automatically be prepended with one. |

The access control that determines how the Asset Version resource can be accessed. Can be: |
date_created

Create an Asset Version resource
Create an Asset Version resource to upload a file to an Asset resource. The Asset Version resource is created by making a POST request to a dedicated URL—a URL that is different from the URL used to read and fetch the resource.
https://serverless-upload.twilio.com/v1/Services/ {ServiceSid}/Assets/{AssetSid}/Versions
The following example creates an Asset Version resource using curl and an external file, asset_name.png, which contains the asset to upload.
curl -X POST "https://serverless-upload.twilio.com/v1/Services/ZSXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/Assets/ZHXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/Versions" \ -F "Content=@asset_file.png; type=image/png" \ -F "Path=/asset1" \ -F "Visibility=public" \ -u "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:your_auth_token"
The create action is not supported by the helper libraries.
The create action accepts these parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
Content |

Path |
The path to assign the asset. Must be URL Friendly, without fragments, and ;,?:@+&$()' " are disallowed). |
