    Blob Storage

    Table of Contents

    Fusion accepts large binary objects (blobs) for upload, and stores them in Solr. Blob uploads are used to install models, lookup lists, JDBC drivers, and more.

    Blob Types

    A resourceType query parameter can be used to specify the blob type. For example, specify file when uploading a text or CSV file, like this:

    curl -H 'Content-Type: text/csv' -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X PUT 'https://FUSION_HOST:FUSION_PORT/api/apps/APP_NAME/blobs/quickstart/EXAMPLE.csv?resourceType=file' --data-binary @/path/EXAMPLE.csv

    The complete list of valid values for resourceType is below:

    catalog

    An analytics catalog

    driver:jdbc

    A JDBC driver
