Add attachments to the item after item updating

[ztdan4ik]

Hi there,

Have an issue with attachments

Here is my sample:

...
$list = $client->getWeb()->getLists()->getByTitle("Title");
$items = $list->getItems()
              ->expand('AttachmentFiles,FieldValuesAsText');
$client->load($this->items);
$client->executeQuery();

$item = $items->getItem(0);
$item->setProperty('Title', 'Update 2');
$item->update();
$item->executeQuery();

$attCreationInformation = new AttachmentCreationInformation();
$attCreationInformation->setProperty('FileName', $values['value']['fileName']);
$attCreationInformation->setProperty('ContentStream', $values['value']['content']);

$item->getAttachmentFiles()->add($attCreationInformation);
$item->executeQuery();

After executing this I getting error from Share Point "Cannot find resource for the request AttachmentFiles."

I did some research and found that for AttachmentCollection->resourcePath->parrent is missing and thats why url looks like this: https://domain.sharepoint.com/sites/Site-Name/_api/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='document.docx') The part web/lists/GetByTitle('ListName')/items(1) is missing

What I notice that If I don't expand with AttachmentFiles - all works fine.

Did I use it in wrong way? Or there is an issue with it?

Thanks in advance!

Greetings, thank you for catching it and providing the detailed analysis!

exactly the root cause here and apparently the bug with the library itself (sadly, including the latest 2.5.3 version). The forthcoming version (expected to be released later this week) will address this issue, meanwhile please consider to install the library from master branch.

Thanks for quick reply. So, on master this issue is already resolved?

It is, just verified it against the example: UploadAttachment.php, seems to be working as expected.
