Find your "__DefaultAsset__" asset identifier

Every environment has at least one (1) default asset. The combination of an environment Id and an asset Id ensures that objects remain associated to your environment. Therefore, every file upload must have an asset identifier. To find your default asset Id in the UI, selects the Assets tab:

Next look for the asset name "__DefaultAsset__" and click anywhere on the row associated with it. Make note of the identifier to the right of "ID". This is your default asset identifier.

Why this is important: When using our file intake API, a valid asset ID must be provided before a file can be uploaded successfully. When this is performed in the UI, the default asset is automatically chosen. Where as, when using the intake API files are typically associated with a workflow; users often want specific uploads to be associated to particular assets there by segmenting them easily by source. If you don't have a specific asset you want to associate an upload to, you must supply the default asset at a minimum.
