# UploadPart

`PUT /{bucket}/{key}?partNumber&uploadId`

Uploads one part of a multipart upload.

Send the parts in any order, or at the same time. A part with a part number that exists replaces it. Keep the ETag of each part for CompleteMultipartUpload.

- Role: Editor or higher.
- Support: supported.
- Auth: AWS Signature Version 4 with your API key. See [S3 API](/api/s3.md).
- Returns the part ETag. Every part except the last must be the same size.

## Example request

```http
PUT /support-tickets/big.bin?partNumber=1&uploadId=VXBsb2FkIGZvciBiaWcuYmlu HTTP/1.1
Host: wspq7ws2np5l8z4.storage.beta.graphon.sh
x-amz-date: 20261007T093000Z
x-amz-content-sha256: UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD
Authorization: AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=<ACCESS_KEY_ID>/20261007/us-east-1/s3/aws4_request, SignedHeaders=host;x-amz-content-sha256;x-amz-date, Signature=<SIGNATURE>
Content-Length: 104857600

<104857600 bytes>
```

## Path parameters

- `bucket` (string, required): The bucket name.
- `key` (string, required): The object key. Keep each `/` as it is. Percent-encode the other reserved characters.

## Query parameters

- `partNumber` (integer, required): The part number, from 1 through 10,000.
- `uploadId` (string, required): The upload ID from CreateMultipartUpload.

## Headers

- `Content-Length` (integer, required): The size of the body in bytes. One request can carry at most 200 MiB.
- `Content-MD5` (string, optional): The base64 MD5 digest of the body. A different digest returns `400 BadDigest`.
- `x-amz-checksum-*` (string, optional): A base64 checksum of the part: `crc32`, `crc32c`, `crc64nvme`, `sha1`, or `sha256`. Storage checks it. A different checksum returns `400 BadDigest`.
- `x-amz-sdk-checksum-algorithm` (string, optional): The checksum to compute: `CRC32`, `CRC32C`, `CRC64NVME`, `SHA1`, or `SHA256`. `x-amz-checksum-algorithm` does the same.
- `x-amz-expected-bucket-owner` (string, optional): The workspace ID that must own the bucket. Another owner returns `403 AccessDenied`.

## Request body

- `Body` (binary, required): The bytes of the part.

## Responses

### 200 · OK

Storage stored the part.

Response headers:

- `ETag` (string, optional): The entity tag of the part. Send it to CompleteMultipartUpload.

```http
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
ETag: "7ac66c0f148de9519b8bd264312c4d64"
x-amz-request-id: 4F8A2C7D1E6B4093A5C2D8E1F7B3A960
```

## Errors

Any request can also get the common errors on [S3 API](/api/s3.md).

### 404 · `NoSuchUpload`

The upload ID is not known for this key. The upload was completed or aborted.

Start a new upload with CreateMultipartUpload.

### 400 · `InvalidArgument`

The partNumber is not an integer from 1 through 10,000.

Number the parts from 1 through 10,000.

### 400 · `BadDigest`

A checksum header does not match the body. Storage did not keep the bytes.

Compute the checksum from the bytes that you send, then send the request again.

### 400 · `XAmzContentSHA256Mismatch`

The body does not match the SHA-256 that the request signed.

Hash the bytes that you send, then sign and send the request again.

### 400 · `IncompleteBody`

The body ended before the length that the request declared.

Send the whole body again.

### 411 · `MissingContentLength`

An `aws-chunked` body came without `x-amz-decoded-content-length`.

Send the object size in `x-amz-decoded-content-length`.

### 413 · `EntityTooLarge`

The body is larger than 200 MiB.

Use a multipart upload. The aws CLI and the SDKs do this for a large file by themselves.

### 503 · `SlowDown`

The bucket has too many writes in progress. The response has `Retry-After: 1`.

Wait for the Retry-After time, then send the request again. SDKs retry by themselves.

### 404 · `NoSuchBucket`

No bucket has this name, or the bucket was deleted.

Check the bucket name. ListBuckets shows the buckets of the workspace.

### 403 · `AccessDenied`

The key does not have the role for this operation, or the bucket is in another workspace.

Use a key of the workspace that owns the bucket, with the role above.

import os

import boto3
from botocore.config import Config

api_key = os.environ["GRAPHON_API_KEY"]
access_key_id = api_key.split("_", 1)[1].split(".")[0]

    Bucket="support-tickets",
    Key="big.bin",
    PartNumber=1,
    UploadId=upload_id,
    Body=open("part-1.bin", "rb"),
)
print(response["ETag"])
```

### JavaScript (AWS SDK)

```javascript
// Replace wspq7ws2np5l8z4 with your workspace ID.
import { S3Client, UploadPartCommand } from '@aws-sdk/client-s3';
import { createReadStream } from 'node:fs';

const apiKey = process.env.GRAPHON_API_KEY;
if (!apiKey) throw new Error('Set GRAPHON_API_KEY.');
const accessKeyId = apiKey.split('_')[1].split('.')[0];

const s3 = new S3Client({
  endpoint: 'https://wspq7ws2np5l8z4.storage.beta.graphon.sh',
  region: 'us-east-1',
  forcePathStyle: true,
  credentials: { accessKeyId, secretAccessKey: apiKey },
});

const uploadId = 'VXBsb2FkIGZvciBiaWcuYmlu'; // The UploadId from CreateMultipartUpload
const response = await s3.send(new UploadPartCommand({
  Bucket: 'support-tickets',
  Key: 'big.bin',
  PartNumber: 1,
  UploadId: uploadId,
  Body: createReadStream('part-1.bin'),
}));
console.log(response.ETag);
```
