How to Upload Files

This page will help you understand the web services needed to upload files.

You can upload the following types of files to Projector:

Resumes
Workspace documents
Workspace invoices
Workspace issues
Receipts

This page is specifically geared towards Resumes, but the principles are translatable to other types too.

Authenticate

Call PwsAuthenticate to get your SessionTicket and DocumentServerUrl.

Get Folder

Files are stored in "folders" on our servers. There are many potential folders so you need to ask for a specific one. For example, I would like the resume folder for John Smith. See PwsGetFolder to understand the folder type and references that must be passed.

Optional (Get Existing File Reference)

If you are uploading a new file you can skip this step. If you'd like to update an existing file then call PwsGetFolderContents. A folder can have many files in it. The response lists each file. Store the documentRefUid,
