Create Multiple Object Record Attachments

You can create object record attachments in bulk with a JSON or CSV input file. You must first load the attachments to file staging. If the attachment already exists in your Vault, Vault uploads it as a new version of the existing attachment. Learn more about attachment versioning in Vault Help.

The maximum input file size is 1GB.
The values in the input must be UTF-8 encoded.
CSVs must follow the standard format.
The maximum batch size is 500.
