Enabling API Fortress to Read Local Files

Legacy Documentation
You're viewing legacy documentation for API Fortress (deployed via an on-premises container). To view documentation for the new SaaS version of API Fortress — now known as Sauce Labs API Testing and Monitoring (with Sauce Connect tunnels) — see API Testing on the Sauce Labs Cloud.

Using the read-file command, you can have your test read local files.

Currently, there is no GUI functionality to upload the files, however, you can set up your container to connect to a local folder on your host machine.

To do so, you have to update your docker-compose.yml file in the core/ directory.

In the "apifortress" service definition, modify the "volumes" block by adding one entry looking like this:

volumes:
- /var/local/data:/data

Where /var/local/data is the path in your host machine where you want to store the files.
