Hi,
I need to create a new item in the list and also need to attach file in it.
PFB the code which i am using attachment_file.add() method but i am getting a Type error: add() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given. Refer to below line of code which is causing error :
target_item.attachment_files.add(file_name, file_data)
Please Look into the below code and help me out in resolving this.
from office365.runtime.auth.client_credential import ClientCredential from office365.sharepoint.client_context import ClientContext import os
site_url = ‘https://your_sharepoint_site_url’ client_id = ‘your_client_id’ client_secret = ‘your_client_secret’
credentials = ClientCredential(client_id, client_secret)
ctx=ClientContext(site_url).with_credentials(credentials)
list_title = ‘Your List Name’
target_list = ctx.web.lists.get_by_title(list_title) item_creation_info = { ‘Title’: ‘New Item Title’ } new_item=target_list.add_item(item_creation_info)
ctx.execute_query()
item_id = new_item.properties[‘Id’]
print(f‘Created item with ID:{item_id}’)
file_path = ‘path/to/your/file.txt’
file_name = os.path.basename(file_path)
with open(file_path, ‘rb’) as file_content:
file_data = file_content.read()
target_item=target_list.get_item_by_id(item_id)
target_item.attachment_files.add(file_name, file_data)
ctx.execute_query()
print(f‘Attached file to item ID: {item_id}’)
