## List attachments [GET]
+ Parameters
+ id (required, integer, `1`) ... ID of the work package whose attachments will be listed
+ Response 200 (application/hal+json)
[Attachments by work package][]
+ Response 404 (application/hal+json)
Returned if the work package does not exist or the client does not have sufficient permissions
to see it.
**Required permission:** view work package
*Note: A client without sufficient permissions shall not be able to test for the existence of a work package.
That's why a 404 is returned here, even if a 403 might be more appropriate.*
+ Body
{
"_type": "Error",
"errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:NotFound",
"message": "The specified work package does not exist."
}
## Add attachment [POST]
To add an attachment to a work package, a client needs to issue a request of type `multipart/form-data`
with exactly two parts.
The first part *must* be called `metadata`. Its content type is expected to be `application/json`,
the body *must* be a single JSON object, containing at least the `fileName` and optionally the attachments `description`.
The second part *must* be called `file`, its content type *should* match the mime type of the file.
The body *must* be the raw content of the file.
Note that a `filename` must be indicated in the `Content-Disposition` of this part, however it will be ignored.
Instead the `fileName` inside the JSON of the metadata part will be used.
+ Parameters
+ id (required, integer, `1`) ... ID of the work package to receive the attachment
+ Request (multipart/form-data)
--boundary-delimiter
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="metadata"
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
{
"fileName": "cute-cat.png",
"description": {
"raw": "A cute kitty, cuddling with its friends!"
}
}
--boundary-delimiter
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="attachment"
Content-Type: image/png
PNG file data
--boundary-delimiter--
+ Response 200 (application/hal+json)
[Attachment][]
+ Response 400 (application/hal+json)
Returned if the client sends a not understandable request. Reasons include:
* Omitting one of the required parts (metadata and file)
* sending unparsable JSON in the metadata part
+ Body
{
"_type": "Error",
"errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:InvalidRequestBody",
"message": "The request could not be parsed as JSON."
}
+ Response 403 (application/hal+json)
Returned if the client does not have sufficient permissions.
**Required permission:** edit work package or add work package
*Note that you will only receive this error, if you are at least allowed to see the work package.*
+ Body
{
"_type": "Error",
"errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:MissingPermission",
"message": "You are not allowed to delete this attachment."
}
+ Response 404 (application/hal+json)
Returned if the work package does not exist or the client does not have sufficient permissions
to see it.
**Required permission:** view work package
*Note: A client without sufficient permissions shall not be able to test for the existence of a work package.
That's why a 404 is returned here, even if a 403 might be more appropriate.*

{
"_type": "Error",
"errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:NotFound",
"message": "The specified work package does not exist."
}
+ Response 422 (application/hal+json)

* Sending a file that is too large

"_type": "Error",
"errorIdentifier": "urn:openproject-org:api:v3:errors:PropertyConstraintViolation",
"message": "File is too large (maximum size is 5242880 Bytes)."
