RAML for multiple files as output

I am new to RAML 1.0 I want to mention multiple csv files as response. My API will be creating multiple csv file for different entities. I want to mention this multiple file in response in RAML. Can you suggest what should be response for multiple files in RAML.

Solution

  • The body in HTTP requests and reponses is formed of one payload. You should use one zip, or a tar, tar.gz, etc, file to compress the files inside one file, or use a multi-part response to convey that each file is an attachement.

    Example of a zip response:

    #%RAML 1.0
title: test-attachment

/resource:
  post:
    responses:
      200:
        body:
          application/zip:

    Example of multi-part response:

    #%RAML 1.0
title: test-attachment

/resource:
  post:
    responses:
      200:
        body:
          multipart/form-data:
            properties:
                file1:
                    type: file
                    fileTypes: ['application/csv']
                file2:
                    type: file
                    fileTypes: ['application/csv']
