Details
upload_file takes a project name or number, the file you want to upload,
and the type of file you want to upload (defaulting to VRL transmitter detections).
If data_type is "new_tags", "receivers", or "glider", only CSV and XLS/XLSX
files are accepted; if "detections", only VRL and CSV files are accepted;
if "events" or "gps", only CSV is accepted.
Multiple files can be uploaded at once, but they must all be the same data type
and posted to the same project.Examples
if (FALSE) {
# Newly tagged fish, the default
upload_file(87, "your_tagged_fish.xls")
upload_file(87, "your_tagged_fish.xls", "new_tags")
# Transmitter detections
upload_file(
"umces boem offshore wind energy",
"c:/wherever/your_CSV_detections.csv",
"detections"
)
upload_file(
"umces boem offshore wind energy",
"c:/wherever/your_VRL_detections.vrl",
"detections"
)
# Receiver metadata
