Add a session resource

POST /api/v1/forward/sessions/{session_id}/resources Mounts an additional file resource in the sandbox runtime of an existing session. Use this endpoint when you need to upload a file while a session is in progress. The file must first be uploaded through the Files API. This endpoint accepts only type: "file".

Response fields

Field	Type	Description
id	string	Session resource ID, prefixed with `sesr_`.
type	string	Resource type. Always `file`.
file_id	string	Mounted File ID.
mount_path	string	Actual mount path in the Agent container.
created_at	string	Resource creation time in RFC 3339 format.
updated_at	string	Resource update time in RFC 3339 format.

Notify the Agent about the file

After mounting the file, the Agent does not detect it automatically. Send a user.message through Send session events and include the returned file path:

curl -s -X POST 'https://api.qoder.com.cn/api/v1/forward/sessions/sess_xxx/events' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $QODER_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "events": [{
    "type": "user.message",
    "content": [
      {"type": "text", "text": "Analyze the file"},
      {"type": "text", "text": "File path: /data/workspace/spec.md"}
    ]
  }]
}'

Use the mount_path returned when the resource was added.

Errors

HTTP	Type	Code	Trigger
400	`invalid_request_error`	`invalid_request_body`	The request body is not valid JSON.
400	`invalid_request_error`	`invalid_resource`	`type` is not `file`, `file_id` is missing, or a field contains control characters.
404	`not_found_error`	`session_not_found`	The session does not exist.
404	`not_found_error`	`file_not_found`	The file does not exist or has been deleted.
409	`conflict_error`	`session_archived`	The session is archived.
409	`conflict_error`	`resource_conflict`	The mount path conflicts with an existing session resource, or the file is already mounted in the session.
401	`authentication_error`	`authentication_required`	The PAT or SAT is invalid or expired.

Notes

The file must first be uploaded successfully through the Files API. After it is mounted, the Agent can read it from the container, but you must still send an Event to tell the Agent the file path; see Notify the Agent about the file.
If mount_path is omitted, Forward generates /data/workspace/<file-name>. Explicitly specify mount_path when mounting files with the same name to avoid overwriting.
This endpoint supports only adding file resources. Other resource types are rejected.
You cannot add resources to an archived session. Create a new session to continue.
Added resources are returned in the resources field of the get-session and list-sessions responses; the value is an empty array when no resources are mounted.
