Failed calling 'upload' - error: upload() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

maxdraki

Hi - I've been using the command line tool to upload images with bash for a few years, but it's just started erroring and I'm not sure why..

The error is - Failed calling 'upload' - error: upload() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

The code is

cld uploader upload ~[…]/$image public_id="images/" $public_id use_filename=true overwrite=true

I'm not sure what's changed or what the problem is - can someone please help?

Thanks

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out.

Can you let me know when you uploaded and got this error? I'm only seeing one failed upload from today. It returned a 401 because the signature was invalid.

I also see a number of successful upload requests from today, so let me know if the issue has been resolved.

I look forward to your reply.

Kind regards,

Tia

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly Tia

The problem must be on my end, but I'm not sure what it is - I changed from using the command line tool to the API and (with a bit of trial and error!) it now works..

Thank you
