[ckan-dev] CkanClient file upload & CKAN 2.2

[David Raznick]

Hello

As far as I am aware the old filestore api has not been changed and
should work still in 2.2 (or that was the intention).  This should be
fixed before the release if that is the case.   Could you give more
details or logs on the breakage?

Nonethess, sadly, the storage api endpoint was never API versioned and
the CKANclient use of it was always basically a hack (It was just
emulating what happened on the frontend).
