Acquire permission & location to upload files

The storage used by Fieldwire, Amazon S3, allows a user to directly post files to it, without having to go through a Fieldwire server.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/sigv4-UsingHTTPPOST.html

The post S3 token contains all the information you need to use this functionality and has a 1 day expiry. After receiving one, you simply have to create a POST request that contains all the fields of the post S3 token, and add a "file" field with your file content and send it directly to AWS (to the post_address contained in the token).

The only action you can do on Fieldwire API with post S3 token is to request one.

It is highly recommended to look at the two demo client applications:

• Ruby: https://github.com/Fieldwire/fieldwire_ruby_sample
• Java: https://github.com/Fieldwire/fieldwire_java_sample

Both contain examples of post S3 token usage.
