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
| Resource Properties in REST API format | |
|---|---|
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 SID of the Asset resource that is the parent of the Asset Version. |
path
|
The URL-friendly string by which the Asset Version can be referenced. It can be a maximum of 255 characters. 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. |
visibility
|
The access control that determines how the Asset Version resource can be accessed. Can be: |
date_created
|
The date and time in GMT when the Asset Version resource was created specified in ISO 8601 format. |
url
|
The absolute URL of the Asset Version resource. |
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 the language of your choice (or curl) and an external file, my-asset.png, which contains the Asset to upload.
Note that the Serverless upload endpoint is on a different subdomain from the rest of the Serverless API (serverless-upload.twilio.com instead of serverless.twilio.com), and is not supported by the Twilio Helper Libraries at this time.
The create action accepts these parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
Content |
The asset to upload. |
AssetSid |
The SID of the Asset resource to upload this asset to. |
Path |
The path to assign the asset. Must be URL Friendly, without fragments, and ;,?:@+&$()' " are disallowed). |
ServiceSid |
The SID of the Asset's Service. |
Visibility |
The visibility of the asset. Can be public, protected, or private. |
