Resumen

Esta guía demuestra cómo cargar archivos en Blue utilizando dos enfoques diferentes:

1. Carga Directa de GraphQL (Recomendado) - Carga simple de un solo paso con un límite de tamaño de archivo de 256MB
2. Carga de API REST - Proceso de tres pasos que admite archivos más grandes de hasta 4.8GB

Esta es una comparación de los dos métodos:

Característica	Carga de GraphQL	Carga de API REST
Complexity	Simple (one request)	Complex (three steps)
File Size Limit	256MB per file	4.8GB per file
Batch Upload	Up to 10 files	Single file only
Implementation	Direct mutation	Multi-step process
Best For	Most use cases	Large files only

Carga de Archivos con GraphQL

El método de carga de GraphQL proporciona una forma simple y directa de cargar archivos con una sola solicitud.

uploadFile

Carga un solo archivo en el sistema de almacenamiento de archivos y crea una referencia de archivo en la base de datos.

Entrada:

• file: Upload! - El archivo a cargar (usando multipart/form-data)
• projectId: String! - ID del proyecto o slug donde se almacenará el archivo
• companyId: String! - ID de la empresa o slug donde se almacenará el archivo

Devuelve: File! - El objeto de archivo creado

Ejemplo:

mutation UploadFile($input: UploadFileInput!) {
  uploadFile(input: $input) {
    id
    uid
    name
    size
    type
    extension
    shared
    createdAt
    project {
      id
      name
    }
    folder {
      id
      title
    }
  }
}

uploadFiles

Carga múltiples archivos en el sistema de almacenamiento de archivos y crea referencias de archivos en la base de datos.

Entrada:

• files: [Upload!]! - Array de archivos a cargar (máx. 10)
• projectId: String! - ID del proyecto o slug donde se almacenarán los archivos
• companyId: String! - ID de la empresa o slug donde se almacenarán los archivos

Devuelve: [File!]! - Array de objetos de archivo creados

Ejemplo:

mutation UploadFiles($input: UploadFilesInput!) {
  uploadFiles(input: $input) {
    id
    uid
    name
    size
    type
    extension
    shared
    createdAt
  }
}

Implementación del Cliente

Cliente Apollo (JavaScript)

Carga de Archivo Único:

import { gql } from '@apollo/client';

const UPLOAD_FILE = gql`
  mutation UploadFile($input: UploadFileInput!) {
    uploadFile(input: $input) {
      id
      uid
      name
      size
      type
      extension
      shared
      createdAt
    }
  }
`;

// Using file input
const fileInput = document.querySelector('input[type="file"]');
const file = fileInput.files[0];

const { data } = await uploadFile({
  variables: {
    input: {
      file: file,
      projectId: "project_123", // or "my-project-slug"
      companyId: "company_456"  // or "my-company-slug"
    }
  }
});

Multiple Files Upload:

const UPLOAD_FILES = gql`
  mutation UploadFiles($input: UploadFilesInput!) {
    uploadFiles(input: $input) {
      id
      uid
      name
      size
      type
      extension
      shared
      createdAt
    }
  }
`;

// Using multiple file inputs
const fileInputs = document.querySelectorAll('input[type="file"]');
const files = Array.from(fileInputs).map(input => input.files[0]).filter(Boolean);

const { data } = await uploadFiles({
  variables: {
    input: {
      files: files,
      projectId: "project_123", // or "my-project-slug"
      companyId: "company_456"  // or "my-company-slug"
    }
  }
});

REST API Upload

Use this method for files larger than 256MB (up to 4.8GB). This approach uses a three-step process: request upload credentials, upload to storage, then register the file in the database.

Prerequisites:

• Python 3.x installed
• requests library installed: pip install requests
• A valid X-Bloo-Token-ID and X-Bloo-Token-Secret for Blue API authentication
• The file to upload (e.g., test.jpg) in the same directory as the script

This method covers two scenarios:

1. Uploading to the "File Tab"
2. Uploading to the "Todo File Custom Field"

Configuration

Define these constants at the top of your script:

Steps Explained

Step 1: Request Upload Credentials

• Send a GET request to https://api.blue.cc/uploads?filename=test.jpg
• Returns S3 credentials in JSON format

Sample Response:
@@CB##1cc5ab16-c283-4779-a629-7d3baeddc119##CB@@

Step 2: Upload File to S3

• Uses the files parameter in requests.post to send a multipart/form-data request to the S3 URL
• Ensures all fields match the policy exactly, avoiding curl's formatting issues

Step 3: Register File Metadata

• Sends a GraphQL mutation to https://api.blue.cc/graphql
• Dynamically calculates file size with os.path.getsize

Sample Response:

{
  "data": {
    "createFile": {
      "id": "cm8qudguy2ouprv2ljq3widd8",
      "uid": "cm8qujq3b01p22lrv9xbb2q62",
      "name": "test.jpg",
      "__typename": "File"
    }
  }
}

Uploading to Custom Field

::code-group

@@CB##a81334fb-b6c1-45f7-b857-372c2c1526d2##CB@@
::

Steps 1-3 are the same as the File Tab process (fetch credentials, upload to S3, and register file metadata).

For step 4, you need to associate the file with a todo custom field.

• Sends a GraphQL mutation to link the file to a todo custom field
• Uses todoId and customFieldId specific to your setup

Sample Response:

{
  "data": {
    "createTodoCustomFieldFile": true
  }
}
