Two delivery modes are supported via `X-Upload-Mode`: - **STORAGE** (default) — the request body references a file already in Phrase file storage by `storageId`. The connector pulls the bytes itself and writes them to the target Drive location. Returns the standard `UploadResponse` envelope. - **STREAM** — initialize a two-phase streaming upload (recommended for large files). `storageId` must be omitted. The response carries `{ uploadUrl, streamToken, expiresAt, maxBytes }`. The caller then PUTs the raw bytes to `uploadUrl` with the matching `X-Stream-Token` header — see `PUT /google-drive/v1/sync/upload-raw-file/stream/{streamId}`. For async uploads, only STORAGE mode is supported and `storageId` is required. **Async variant.** Only `X-Upload-Mode: STORAGE` is supported — `storageId` is required. The endpoint returns immediately with `{ requestId, webHookUrl }` and the actual upload result is POSTed to the URL supplied in `X-Webhook`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/phrase-connectors.json post /google-drive/v1/async/upload-raw-file openapi: 3.0.1 info: title: Connectors API description: > The Connectors API (Bifrost) is the public gateway between Phrase clients and the individual content connectors (Google Drive, Contentful, Tridion, Optimizely, ...). Every endpoint follows the same request/response contract — this page documents the shared pieces. Per-connector pages below show the connector-specific request bodies. --- ## Gateway prefix When calling Bifrost through the public Phrase gateway, **prefix every path with `/connectors`**: ``` https:///connectors//v1/ ``` Internal callers (service-to-service inside the Phrase cluster) call Bifrost directly and omit the `/connectors` prefix. The OpenAPI paths below show the *internal* form. --- ## Authentication All endpoints require an IDM-issued JWT in the `Authorization` header: ``` Authorization: Bearer ``` Bifrost decodes the token, resolves the caller's TMS account via IDM Discovery, and exchanges the JWT for a short-lived TMS access token transparently. Callers do not handle TMS tokens directly. --- ## Connector identity & credentials Every request body carries a **`connectorUuid`** that references a connector instance configured in TMS. Bifrost loads the connector's stored credentials and uses them to talk to the underlying system — callers never handle connector credentials directly. New connectors are created in TMS — e.g. for Google Drive: `https:///tms/connectors/create?connectorType=GOOGLE_DRIVE2`. --- ## Synchronous vs asynchronous variants Most operations expose two variants: | Path prefix | Behavior | |---|---| | `/sync/...` | Blocks until the operation completes. Best for small payloads / interactive flows. | | `/async/...` | Returns immediately with `{ requestId, webHookUrl }`. Bifrost POSTs the result to `X-Webhook` when ready, or you can poll. Use for large payloads and long-running work. | For async endpoints, the `X-Webhook` header is **required** — Bifrost will POST the result there once the connector finishes processing. --- ## Common headers | Header | Direction | Purpose | |---|---|---| | `Authorization` | request | `Bearer ` — required on every endpoint. | | `X-ActionId` | request + response | Correlation id propagated through Phrase logs. Generated by Bifrost when omitted; always returned on the response. | | `X-Webhook` | request | Required on `/async/...` endpoints. URL that receives the result. | | `X-ResponseType` | request | `ID` (default) — JSON with `storageId`. `OBJECT` — raw binary stream (`application/octet-stream`). Use `ID` for files > 1 MB. | | `X-Upload-Mode` | request | `STORAGE` (default) — upload bytes already in file storage. `STREAM` — initialize a streaming upload session; the response carries `uploadUrl` + `X-Stream-Token` for the phase-2 PUT. Currently supported by Google Drive only. | | `X-Stream-Token` | request | Required on phase-2 streaming upload PUTs. Value returned by phase-1. | --- ## Raw vs XLIFF operations Most connectors expose two content shapes: - **Raw** (`download-raw-file`, `upload-raw-file`) — the connector's native content, unmodified. Use when you want the original asset. - **XLIFF** (`download-xliff-file`, `upload-xliff-file`) — the same content converted to/from XLIFF 2.0 ready for translation. The connector applies its segmentation and serialization rules. `convert-to-xliff` / `convert-to-raw` are the standalone conversion variants that operate on already-stored files referenced by `storageId`. --- ## Error model Errors come back in two envelopes depending on the endpoint: - **Operations that report partial success** (upload, convert) return `200 OK` with: ```json { "success": false, "errors": [{ "code": "404", "message": "Content was not found." }] } ``` - **Hard failures** return a 4xx/5xx with an `ErrorResponse` body. HTTP status maps to the Bifrost error taxonomy: | Status | Error type | Typical cause | |---|---|---| | 401, 403 | `auth_error` | Missing/invalid JWT, IDM identity unresolved, connector credential rejected upstream. | | 429 | `rate_limited` | Caller or upstream rate limit hit. | | 400 | `processing_error` | Bad request body, validation failure, unsupported configuration. | | 4xx (other) | `processing_error` | Connector returned a client error. | | 5xx | `upstream_error` | Connector or downstream Phrase service failed. | | timeout | `timeout` | Upstream did not respond in time. | | deserialization | `deserialization` | Connector returned a malformed response. | | other | `unknown` | Unclassified. | `X-ActionId` is returned on every error response — quote it when reporting issues. --- ## Streaming uploads (two-phase) For connectors that support `X-Upload-Mode: STREAM` (currently Google Drive): 1. **Phase 1** — `POST //v1/sync/upload-raw-file` with `X-Upload-Mode: STREAM` and a body that includes `name`, `size`, and a `FOLDER` path. The response is: ```json { "uploadUrl": "//v1/sync/upload-raw-file/stream/", "streamToken": "", "expiresAt": "2026-01-29T13:48:01Z", "maxBytes": 240113628 } ``` `uploadUrl` is relative — prepend the gateway host (and `/connectors` prefix when calling through the public gateway). 2. **Phase 2** — `PUT ` with the raw bytes, `X-Stream-Token: `, and a `Content-Type` matching the file. `Content-Length` must equal the declared `size`. Streams expire at `expiresAt`. Large transfers may need increased client-side timeouts. version: '1.0' servers: - url: https://eu.phrase.com/connectors description: The API server for EU data center. - url: https://us.phrase.com/connectors description: The API server for US data center. security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Files description: Upload and download files via Phrase file storage. - name: GitHub description: GitHub connector.
