Updating Assets

All Squash APIs are currently not available for accounts under the free plan. For more details please go to our plans page.

After submitting API calls it may take from 1 to 3 minutes for the changes to be fully propagated. This depends on the number and size of the files updated within the assets folder.

Upload file

Please note that you need to use the separate "create folder" API first (see below) if you plan to upload files to specific folders. Squash does not create folders automatically as part of this API call.

https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/?repository=<repository_name>

HTTP Method: POST
Success Response Code: 200
Success Response Body: JSON data

Sample Request

curl --request POST \
--header 'Squash-key: <key>' \
--form file=@catalog.txt \
'https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/?repository=catalog_repo'

Upload multiple files

Squash requires one API call per file.

Sample Request

In the example below we are uploading two files keeping the process in the background to speed things up.

curl --request POST \
--header 'Squash-key: <key>' \
--form file=@text.txt \
'https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/?repository=docker-test' &

curl --request POST \
--header 'Squash-key: <key>' \
--form file=@text2.txt \
'https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/?repository=docker-test' &

Create folder

https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/create-dir/?repository=<repository_name>

HTTP Method: POST
Success Response Code: 200
Success Response Body: JSON data

Sample Request

curl --request POST \
--header "Content-Type: application/json"  \
--header 'Squash-key: <key>' \
--data '{"directory": "products"}' \
'https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/create-dir/?repository=catalog_repo'

Rename file or folder

https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/rename/?repository=<repository_name>

HTTP Method: POST
Success Response Code: 200
Success Response Body: JSON data

Sample Request

curl --request POST \
--header "Content-Type: application/json"  \
--header 'Squash-key: <key>' \
--data '{"old_name": "catalog", "new_name": "catalog-renamed"}' \
'https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/rename/?repository=catalog_repo'

Delete file or folder

This is the same API call as Upload File with the addition of a to_delete=True form field.

Sample Request

curl --request POST \
--header 'Squash-key: <key>' \
--form to_delete=True \
--form name=products/catalog.txt \
'https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/?repository=catalog_repo'

You may also delete a folder as follows:

curl --request POST \
--header 'Squash-key: <key>' \
--form to_delete=True \
--form name=products/ \
'https://api.squash.io/a/uploads/?repository=catalog_repo'
