I am trying to upload a pdf generated in Python as an attachment to a salesforce object using the simple_salesforce Python package. I have tried several different ways to accomplish this, but have had no luck so far. Here is the code
import base64
import json
from simple_salesforce import Salesforce
instance = ''
sessionId = sf.session_id
def pdf_encode(pdf_filename):
body = open(pdf_filename, 'rb') #open binary file in read mode
body = body.read()
body = base64.encodebytes(body)
body = pdf_encode('PDF_Report.pdf')
response = requests.post('https://%s.salesforce.com/services/data/v29.0/sobjects/Attachment/' % instance,
headers = { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': 'Bearer %s' % sessionId },
data = json.dumps({
'ParentId': parent_id,
'Name': 'test.txt',
'body': body
})
)
I get this error.
TypeError: Object of type bytes is not JSON serializable
I have also tried to use
body = base64.encodebytes(body).decode('ascii')
in my code, but I can't get that to work either. I get the error
UnicodeError: encoding with 'idna' codec failed (UnicodeError: label empty or too long)
Any suggestions on how to upload a PDF in Python 3 into Salesforce as an attachment using simple_salesforce?
I was working on this and found a few resources to upload files. I created one for myself using that.
Below is the code that you can use for Python and have the file uploaded on Salesforce.
import requests
import base64
import json
params = {
"grant_type": "password",
"client_id": "Your_Client_Id",
"client_secret": "Your_Client_Secret",
"username": "YOUR_EMAIL#procureanalytics.com.pcsandbox", # The email you use to login
"password": "YOUR_PASSWORD+YOUR_SECURITY_TOKEN" # Concat your password and your security token
}
r = requests.post("https://test.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token", params=params)
# if you connect to a Sandbox, use test.salesforce.com instead
access_token = r.json().get("access_token")
instance_url = r.json().get("instance_url")
print("Access Token:", access_token)
print("Instance URL", instance_url)

How to use
Step 1:
Key in your email address and password here. Please note that the password here is a string of 'your password' and your 'security token'.
# Import libraries
import requests
import base64
import json
params = {
"grant_type": "password",
"client_id": "Your_Client_Id",
"client_secret": "Your_Client_Secret",
"username": "YOUR_EMAIL#procureanalytics.com.pcsandbox", # The email you use to login
"password": "YOUR_PASSWORD+YOUR_SECURITY_TOKEN" # Concat your password and your security token
}
r = requests.post("https://test.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token", params=params)
# if you connect to a Sandbox, use test.salesforce.com instead
access_token = r.json().get("access_token")
instance_url = r.json().get("instance_url")
print("Access Token:", access_token)
print("Instance URL", instance_url)
You can get your security token on Salesforce through Account >> Settings >> Reset My Security Token.
You will receive an email from salesforce with your security token.
Step 2:
Choose appropriate link for request.post
For Sandbox environment:
r = requests.post("https://test.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token", params=params)
For Production enviroment:
r = requests.post("https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token", params=params)
After your initial connection is ready, the output on the second cell should look something like this:
Access Token: !2864b793dbce2ad32c1ba7d71009ec84.b793dbce2ad32c1ba7d71009ec84
Instance URL https://your_company_name--pcsandbox.my.salesforce.com
Step 3:
Under the 'File upload from a directory' cell (Cell #5), specify your file path.
In my case, this is
# 1) Create a ContentVersion
path = "Folder_name\Sample_pdf.pdf"
with open(path, "rb") as f:
encoded_string = base64.b64encode(f.read()).decode("utf-8")
Step 4:
Under the same cell, mention the Id in which you would like to upload your file.
The sample code below is uploading a file on Accounts object for an account with Id: Abcd123
# 3) Create a ContentDocumentLink
Id = "Abcd123" # This Id can be anything: Account_Id or Lead_Id or Opportunity_Id
ContentDocumentLink = sf_api_call('/services/data/v40.0/sobjects/ContentDocumentLink', method = 'post', data={
'ContentDocumentId': ContentDocument_id,
'LinkedEntityId': Id,
'ShareType': 'V'
})

I have created a Marklogic transform which tries to convert some URL encoded characters: [ ] and whitespace when ingesting data into database. This is the xquery code:
xquery version "1.0-ml";
module namespace space = "http://marklogic.com/rest-api/transform/space-to-space";
declare function space:transform(
$context as map:map,
$params as map:map,
$content as document-node()
) as document-node()
{
let $puts := (
xdmp:log($params),
xdmp:log($context),
map:put($context, "uri", fn:replace(map:get($context, "uri"), "%5B+", "[")),
map:put($context, "uri", fn:replace(map:get($context, "uri"), "%5D+", "]")),
map:put($context, "uri", fn:replace(map:get($context, "uri"), "%20+", " ")),
xdmp:log($context)
)
return $content
};
When I tried this with my python code below
def upload_document(self, inputContent, uri, fileType, database, collection):
if fileType == 'XML':
headers = {'Content-type': 'application/xml'}
fileBytes = str.encode(inputContent)
elif fileType == 'TXT':
headers = {'Content-type': 'text/*'}
fileBytes = str.encode(inputContent)
else:
headers = {'Content-type': 'application/octet-stream'}
fileBytes = inputContent
endpoint = ML_DOCUMENTS_ENDPOINT
params = {}
if uri is not None:
encodedUri = urllib.parse.quote(uri)
endpoint = endpoint + "?uri=" + encodedUri
if database is not None:
params['database'] = database
if collection is not None:
params['collection'] = collection
params['transform'] = 'space-to-space'
req = PreparedRequest()
req.prepare_url(endpoint, params)
response = requests.put(req.url, data=fileBytes, headers=headers, auth=HTTPDigestAuth(ML_USER_NAME, ML_PASSWORD))
print('upload_document result: ' + str(response.status_code))
if response.status_code == 400:
print(response.text)
The following lines are from the xquery logging:
2023-02-13 16:59:00.067 Info: {}
2023-02-13 16:59:00.067 Info:

The MarkLogic REST API is very opinionated about what a valid URI is, and it doesn't allow you to insert documents that have spaces in the URI. If you have an existing URI with a space in it, the REST API will retrieve or update it for you. However, it won't allow you to create a new document with such a URI.
If you need to create documents with spaces in the URI, then you will need to use lower-level APIs. xdmp:document-insert() will let you.
I have been attempting to solve this far too longer than id like to admit, I think the problem is how the data is being parsed with json and being interoperated via the API, as I do not have the same issue with the first function, but run into it with the second. Any help will be great.
import urllib, requests, json
def generateUserKey(username, password):
global devKey
return urllib.request.urlopen("https://pastebin.com/api/api_login.php",
urllib.parse.urlencode({"api_dev_key": devKey, "api_user_name": username, "api_user_password": password}).encode()).read()
def paste(userKey, text):
global devKey
datA = json.dumps({"api_dev_key": devKey, "api_paste_code": text, "api_user_key": userKey, "api_paste_name": "lol", "api_paste_format": "none", "api_paste_private": int(1), "api_paste_expire_date": "10M" })
resp = requests.post(url="https://pastebin.com/api/api_post.php", json=datA, data=datA)
print(resp.text)
key = generateUserKey(devKey, userName, passWord)
print(key)
paste(key, testString)
when ran I generate the following:
c0ce26a1c46d5fff3a254e519003ebb0
Bad API request, invalid api_dev_key
None
the dev key isnt invalid as its being used in the previous function to login and obtain a session key, so this is where I am stuck. Any help?
this could help:
import requests # see https://2.python-requests.org/en/master/
import json
def generateUserKey(data):
login = requests.post("https://pastebin.com/api/api_login.php", data=data)
print("Login status: ", login.status_code if login.status_code != 200 else "OK/200")
print("User token: ", login.text)
return login.text
def paste(data):
r = requests.post("https://pastebin.com/api/api_post.php", data)
print("Paste send: ", r.status_code if r.status_code != 200 else "OK/200")
print("Paste URL: ", r.text)
key = 'your key'
text = "hi"

# see_https://pastebin.com/api fro all the other arguments you can add
}
# if your data is already in json format, you can use json.dumps(data)

However, after running my python code and do another GET method, the same ticket number still appears and I need to wait in random time to get the result I intend which is return 'null' since I have updated the ticket by using PUT method.
Can anyone explain me how does the Zendesk API works? and my apology for my incorrect sentences in explaining my concern.
I'm working on a project with Python(3.6) & Django(1.10) in which I need to create a function at Google cloud using API request.
How can upload code in the form of a zip archive while creating that function?
Here's what I have tried:
From views.py :
def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
if request.method == 'POST':
post_data = request.POST.copy()
post_data.update({'user': request.user.pk})
form = forms.SlsForm(post_data, request.FILES)
print('get post request')
if form.is_valid():
func_obj = form
func_obj.user = request.user
func_obj.project = form.cleaned_data['project']
func_obj.fname = form.cleaned_data['fname']
func_obj.fmemory = form.cleaned_data['fmemory']
func_obj.entryPoint = form.cleaned_data['entryPoint']
func_obj.sourceFile = form.cleaned_data['sourceFile']
func_obj.sc_github = form.cleaned_data['sc_github']
func_obj.sc_inline_index = form.cleaned_data['sc_inline_index']
func_obj.sc_inline_package = form.cleaned_data['sc_inline_package']
func_obj.bucket = form.cleaned_data['bucket']
func_obj.save()
service = discovery.build('cloudfunctions', 'v1', http=views.getauth(), cache_discovery=False)
requ = service.projects().locations().functions().generateUploadUrl(parent='projects/' + func_obj.project + '/locations/us-central1', body={})
resp = requ.execute()
print(resp)
try:
auth = views.getauth()
# Prepare Request Body
req_body = {
"CloudFunction": {
"name": func_obj.fname,
"entryPoint": func_obj.entryPoint,
"timeout": '60s',
"availableMemoryMb": func_obj.fmemory,
"sourceArchiveUrl": func_obj.sc_github,
},
"sourceUploadUrl": func_obj.bucket,
}
service = discovery.build('cloudfunctions', 'v1beta2', http=auth, cachce_dicovery=False)
func_req = service.projects().locations().functions().create(location='projects/' + func_obj.project
+ '/locations/-',
body=req_body)
func_res = func_req.execute()
print(func_res)
return HttpResponse('Submitted',)
except:
return HttpResponse(status=500)
return HttpResponse('Sent!')
Updated Code below:
if form.is_valid():
func_obj = form
func_obj.user = request.user
func_obj.project = form.cleaned_data['project']
func_obj.fname = form.cleaned_data['fname']
func_obj.fmemory = form.cleaned_data['fmemory']
func_obj.entryPoint = form.cleaned_data['entryPoint']
func_obj.sourceFile = form.cleaned_data['sourceFile']
func_obj.sc_github = form.cleaned_data['sc_github']
func_obj.sc_inline_index = form.cleaned_data['sc_inline_index']
func_obj.sc_inline_package = form.cleaned_data['sc_inline_package']
func_obj.bucket = form.cleaned_data['bucket']
func_obj.save()

file_name = os.path.join(IGui.settings.BASE_DIR, 'media/archives/', func_obj.sourceFile.name)
print(file_name)
service = discovery.build('cloudfunctions', 'v1')
func_api = service.projects().locations().functions()
url_svc_req = func_api.generateUploadUrl(parent='projects/'
+ func_obj.project
+ '/locations/us-central1',
body={})
url_svc_res = url_svc_req.execute()
print(url_svc_res)
upload_url = url_svc_res['uploadUrl']
print(upload_url)
headers = {
'content-type': 'application/zip',

}
print(requests.put(upload_url, headers=headers, data=func_obj.sourceFile.name))
auth = views.getauth()
# Prepare Request Body
name = "projects/{}/locations/us-central1/functions/{}".format(func_obj.project, func_obj.fname,)
print(name)
req_body = {
"name": name,
"entryPoint": func_obj.entryPoint,
"timeout": "3.5s",
"availableMemoryMb": func_obj.fmemory,
"sourceUploadUrl": upload_url,
"httpsTrigger": {},
}
service = discovery.build('cloudfunctions', 'v1')
func_api = service.projects().locations().functions()
response = func_api.create(location='projects/' + func_obj.project + '/locations/us-central1',
body=req_body).execute()
pprint.pprint(response)
Now the function has been created successfully, but it fails because the source code doesn't upload to storage bucket, that's maybe something wrong at:
upload_url = url_svc_res['uploadUrl']
print(upload_url)
headers = {
'content-type': 'application/zip',
'x-goog-content-length-range': '0,104857600'
}
print(requests.put(upload_url, headers=headers, data=func_obj.sourceFile.name))
In the request body you have a dictionary "CloudFunction" inside the request. The content of "CloudFunction" should be directly in request.
request_body = {
"name": parent + '/functions/' + name,
"entryPoint": entry_point,
"sourceUploadUrl": upload_url,
"httpsTrigger": {}
}
I recomend using "Try this API" to discover the structure of projects.locations.functions.create .
"sourceArchiveUrl" and "sourceUploadUrl" can't appear together. This is explained in Resorce Cloud Function:
// Union field source_code can be only one of the following:
"sourceArchiveUrl": string,
"sourceRepository": { object(SourceRepository) },
"sourceUploadUrl": string,
// End of list of possible types for union field source_code.
In the rest of the answer I assume that you want to use "sourceUploadUrl". It requires you to pass it a URL returned to you by .generateUploadUrl(...).execute(). See documentation:
sourceUploadUrl -> string
The Google Cloud Storage signed URL used for source uploading,
generated by [google.cloud.functions.v1.GenerateUploadUrl][]
But before passing it you need to upload a zip file to this URL:
curl -X PUT "${URL}" -H 'content-type:application/zip' -H 'x-goog-content-length-range: 0,104857600' -T test.zip
or in python:
headers = {
'content-type':'application/zip',
'x-goog-content-length-range':'0,104857600'
}
print(requests.put(upload_url, headers=headers, data=data))
This is the trickiest part:
the case matters and it should be lowercase. Because the signature is calculated from a hash (here)
you need 'content-type':'application/zip'. I deduced this one logically, because documentation doesn't mention it. (here)
x-goog-content-length-range: min,max is obligatory for all PUT requests for cloud storage and is assumed implicitly in this case. More on it here
104857600, the max in previous entry, is a magical number which I didn't found mentioned anywhere.
where data is a FileLikeObject.
I also assume that you want to use the httpsTrigger. For a cloud function you can only choose one trigger field. Here it's said that trigger is a Union field. For httpsTrigger however that you can just leave it to be an empty dictionary, as its content do not affect the outcome. As of now.
request_body = {
"name": parent + '/functions/' + name,
"entryPoint": entry_point,
"sourceUploadUrl": upload_url,
"httpsTrigger": {}
}
You can safely use 'v1' instead of 'v1beta2' for .create().
Here is a full working example. It would be to complicated if I presented it to you as part of your code, but you can easily integrate it.

I cannot get it to work so that I can use delete, both codes use liburl but they seem to be in different format, so that I don't know how to apply the solution offered on stack exchange, to my code, as you can tell I am a beginner so any help would be greatly appreciated
edit:
here is the code I'm using with keys/passwords blanked
import urllib
import urllib2
import json
import pprint
import re
import subprocess
def authorise():
consumer_key = '**********************'
consumer_secret = '**************'
username = '***********'
password = '*****************'
login_server = 'https://login.salesforce.com'
token_url = login_server+'/services/oauth2/token'
params = urllib.urlencode({
'grant_type': 'password',
'client_id': consumer_key,
'client_secret': consumer_secret,
'username': username,
'password': password
})
data = urllib2.urlopen(token_url, params).read()
oauth = json.loads(data)
return oauth
def country_id_query(params):
query_url = oauth['instance_url']+'/services/data/v23.0/query?%s' % params
headers = {
'Authorization': 'OAuth '+oauth['access_token']
}
req = urllib2.Request(query_url, None, headers)
data = urllib2.urlopen(req).read()
result = json.loads(data)
id = result['records'][0]['Id']
return id
oauth = authorise()
token = oauth['access_token']
print "\ntoken is = " + token
params = urllib.urlencode({
'q': 'SELECT id from Country__c WHERE name = \'A New Found Land\''
})
id = country_id_query(params)
print "\nCountry id is "+id + "\n"
I am looking to find out what I need to add to this to get DELETE working
Okay, found the solution to above for anyone with a similar problem:
def delete_country(id):
query_url = oauth['instance_url']+'/services/data/v23.0/sobjects/Country__c/%s' % id + '/'
headers = {
'Authorization': 'OAuth '+oauth['access_token']
}
opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPHandler)
req = urllib2.Request(query_url, None, headers)
req.get_method = lambda: 'DELETE' # creates the delete method
url = urllib2.urlopen(req) # deletes database item
