# Create a new document upload

`POST /v1/referrals/{id}/document_upload`

The `uri` will be a presigned S3 URL allowing you to upload the referral doc 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 use this to prefill the application.

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