# Attachments

## Get attachments

`GET /wiki/rest/api/content/{id}/child/attachment`

{% hint style="info" %}
Deprecated, use [Confluence's v2 API](/confluence-cloud/v2.md).
{% endhint %}

Returns the attachments for a piece of content. By default, the following objects are expanded: `metadata`.

{% code fullWidth="true" %}

```go
package main

import (
	"context"
	"github.com/ctreminiom/go-atlassian/confluence"
	"github.com/ctreminiom/go-atlassian/pkg/infra/models"
	"log"
	"net/http"
	"os"
)

func main()  {

	var (
		host  = os.Getenv("HOST")
		mail  = os.Getenv("MAIL")
		token = os.Getenv("TOKEN")
	)

	instance, err := confluence.New(nil, host)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	instance.Auth.SetBasicAuth(mail, token)
	instance.Auth.SetUserAgent("curl/7.54.0")

	var options = &models.GetContentAttachmentsOptionsScheme{
		Expand:    nil,
		FileName:  "",
		MediaType: "",
	}

	attachments, response, err := instance.Content.Attachment.Gets(context.Background(), "76513281", 0, 50, options)
	if err != nil {

		if response != nil {
			if response.Code == http.StatusBadRequest {
				log.Println(response.CodeCode)
			}
		}
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	log.Println("Endpoint:", response.Endpoint)
	log.Println("Status Code:", response.Code)

	for _, attachment := range attachments.Results {
		log.Println(attachment.Metadata.MediaType, attachment.Title)
	}
}

```

{% endcode %}

## Create or update attachment

`PUT /wiki/rest/api/content/{id}/child/attachment`

Adds an attachment to a piece of content. If the attachment already exists for the content, then the attachment is updated (i.e. a new version of the attachment is created).

{% code fullWidth="true" %}

```go
package main

import (
   "context"
   "github.com/ctreminiom/go-atlassian/confluence"
   "log"
   "net/http"
   "os"
   "path/filepath"
)

func main()  {

   var (
      host  = os.Getenv("HOST")
      mail  = os.Getenv("MAIL")
      token = os.Getenv("TOKEN")
   )

   instance, err := confluence.New(nil, host)
   if err != nil {
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   instance.Auth.SetBasicAuth(mail, token)
   instance.Auth.SetUserAgent("curl/7.54.0")


   //filepath.Abs("jira/mocks/image.png")

   absolutePath, err := filepath.Abs("confluence/mocks/mock.png")
   if err != nil {
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   log.Println("Using the path", absolutePath)

   reader, err := os.Open(absolutePath)
   if err != nil {
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   defer reader.Close()

   var (
      attachmentID = "76513281"
      fileName = "mock.png"
   )

   attachmentsPage, response, err := instance.Content.Attachment.CreateOrUpdate(context.Background(), attachmentID, "", fileName, reader)
   if err != nil {

      if response != nil {
         if response.Code == http.StatusBadRequest {
            log.Println(response.Code)
         }
      }
      log.Println(response.Endpoint)
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   log.Println("Endpoint:", response.Endpoint)
   log.Println("Status Code:", response.Code)

   for _, attachment := range attachmentsPage.Results {
      log.Println(attachment.ID, attachment.Title)
   }
}
```

{% endcode %}

## Create attachment

`POST /wiki/rest/api/content/{id}/child/attachment`

Adds an attachment to a piece of content. This method only adds a new attachment. If you want to update an existing attachment, use [Create or update attachments](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/api-group-content---attachments/).\
package main

{% code fullWidth="true" %}

```go

import (
   "context"
   "github.com/ctreminiom/go-atlassian/confluence"
   "log"
   "net/http"
   "os"
   "path/filepath"
)

func main()  {

   var (
      host  = os.Getenv("HOST")
      mail  = os.Getenv("MAIL")
      token = os.Getenv("TOKEN")
   )

   instance, err := confluence.New(nil, host)
   if err != nil {
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   instance.Auth.SetBasicAuth(mail, token)
   instance.Auth.SetUserAgent("curl/7.54.0")

   absolutePath, err := filepath.Abs("confluence/mocks/mock.png")
   if err != nil {
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   log.Println("Using the path", absolutePath)

   reader, err := os.Open(absolutePath)
   if err != nil {
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   defer reader.Close()

   var (
      attachmentID = "76513281"
      fileName = "mock-00.png"
   )

   attachmentsPage, response, err := instance.Content.Attachment.Create(context.Background(), attachmentID, "", fileName, reader)
   if err != nil {

      if response != nil {
         if response.Code == http.StatusBadRequest {
            log.Println(response.Code)
         }
      }
      log.Println(response.Endpoint)
      log.Fatal(err)
   }

   log.Println("Endpoint:", response.Endpoint)
   log.Println("Status Code:", response.Code)

   for _, attachment := range attachmentsPage.Results {
      log.Println(attachment.ID, attachment.Title)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.go-atlassian.io/confluence-cloud/content/attachments.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
