  • name: The name of the document in the project, including any folders.

  • exists: Indicates if the file did already exist and was replaced with this new version. If you disallowed file version updates (see allowUpdates) then the next property will indicate an error.

  • error: Null if success. Otherwise shows the specific error why the file could not be processed. This may have many reasons. For example the file might be invalid.

  • segments: The number of segments in the file.

  • attachments: Total number of attachments that could be saved. If a token is invalid, the attachment is disregarded.

The node custom/request contains your initial payload, including some extra properties.
