Notes

  • The file must first be uploaded successfully through the Files API. After it is mounted, the Agent can read it from the container.
  • If mount_path is omitted, Forward generates /data/workspace/<file-name>. Explicitly specify mount_path when mounting files with the same name to avoid overwriting.
  • This endpoint supports only adding file resources. Other resource types are rejected.
  • You cannot add resources to an archived session. Create a new session to continue.
