qlik data-file create [flags]

Options

      --appId string               If this file should be bound to the lifecycle of a specific app, this is the ID of this app.
      --connectionId string        If present, this is the DataFiles connection that the upload should occur in the context of.  If absent,
                                   the default is that the upload will occur in the context of the MyDataFiles connection.  If the DataFiles
                                   connection is different from the one specified when the file was last POSTed or PUT, this will result in
                                   a logical move of this file into the new space.
  -f, --file string                Path to the file that should be included in the request.
  -h, --help                       help for create
      --interval int               Duration in seconds to wait between retries, at least 1 (default 1)
      --name string                Name that will be given to the uploaded file.  It should be noted that the '/' character
                                   in a data file name indicates a 'path' separator in a logical folder hierarchy for the name.  Names that
                                   contain '/'s should be used with the assumption that a logical 'folder hierarchy' is being defined for the
                                   full pathname of that file.  '/' is a significant character in the data file name, and may impact the
                                   behavior of future APIs which take this folder hierarchy into account.
  -q, --quiet                      Return only IDs from the command
      --raw                        Return original response from server without any processing
      --resumable                  Make a resumable request, recommended for large payloads.
                                   The request is split in chunks. If the request is interrupted, it can be resumed by repeating the same command. (default true)
      --retry int                  Number of retries to do before failing, max 10
      --sourceId string            If a SourceId is specified, this is the ID of the existing data file whose content should be copied into
                                   the specified data file.  That is, instead of the file content being specified in the Data element,
                                   it is effectively copied from an existing, previously uploaded file.
      --tempContentFileId string   If a TempContentFileId is specified, this is the ID of a previously uploaded temporary content file whose
                                   content should be copied into the specified data file.  That is, instead of the file content being specified
                                   in the Data element, it is effectively copied from an existing, previously uploaded file.  The expectation
                                   is that this file was previously uploaded to the temporary content service, and the ID specified here is
                                   the one returned from the temp content upload request.
