Upload a file, then reference its attachment_id in a media or voice_memo part.

Upload

Send the raw bytes as the request body (up to 100 MB):
201 Created:
Content-Type sets the stored MIME type (defaults to application/octet-stream); X-Relay-Filename names the file for downloads. Uploads accept up to 100 MB; a presigned two-step flow is on the roadmap.

Send it

Reference the attachment in a part. Relay stores its download URL on the part so clients and history reads can render it directly:
Use "type": "voice_memo" for native inline playback. The uploaded attachment needs an audio/* content type. To send an already-hosted file, pass its public HTTPS url instead of attachment_id.

Ownership

Attachments belong to their uploader. Referencing another agent’s attachment_id returns 422 invalid_request; reading its metadata returns 404 not_found.

Check an upload

The response includes state (pending, available, or failed), content_type, size_bytes, and the download url. Only available attachments can be sent.

Receiving media

Incoming media and voice_memo parts carry a capability url that can be downloaded directly.
