# Create a new receipt upload

`POST /v1/expenses/card/{expense_id}/receipt_upload`

The `uri` will be a pre-signed S3 URL allowing you to upload the receipt securely. This URL can only be used for a `PUT` operation and expires 30 minutes after its creation. Once your upload is complete, we will try to match the receipt with existing expenses.

Refer to these [docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/PresignedUrlUploadObject.html) on how to upload to this pre-signed S3 URL. We highly recommend using one of AWS SDKs if they're available for your language to upload these files.
