How to create a PowerShell script to Upload a process .nupkg file via Rest API to Orchestrator?

[Sumit_Ghosh1 (Sumit Ghosh)]

hi All,

I am trying to create a powershell script to upload a .nupkg to orchestrator tenant using API call. Below is my script:

$bodyAccount = @{
“tenancyName” = “Automation_tenant”
“usernameOrEmailAddress” = “test_user1”
“password” = “Test@1234”
} | ConvertTo-Json

$contentType = “application/json;charset=utf-8”

$uriAccount = “https://uipath.xx.xx.xx.xx/api/Account/Authenticate”

$resAccount = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uriAccount -Method Post -Body $bodyAccount -ContentType $contentType

$authKey=$resAccount.result

$uriUpload = “https://uipath.dev.ciap.xpaas.io/odata/Processes/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.UploadPackage()”

$boundary = “----PowerShellBoundary”
$contentType = “multipart/form-data; boundary=$boundary”

$resPkgUpd = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uriUpload -Method Post -Headers @{“accept”= “application/json”; “Authorization”=“Bearer $authKey”} -ContentType $contentType -InFile “C:\TEMP\TestSumit.1.0.3.nupkg”

The issue is below which i am getting:

Invoke-RestMethod : {“message”:"Failed to read the request form. Unexpected end of Stream, the content may have already been read by another component. ",“errorCode”:0,“traceId”:“00-71494df4062861fccee6804fb5efb119-cb78c9df6b828c5d-00”,“resourceIds”:null}
At C:\Users\sughosh\OneDrive - Capgemini\Documents\powershell scripts\uipath orchestrator\test.ps1:22 char:14

• … resPkgUpd = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uriUpload -Method Post -Headers @ …

•             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  

  • CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-RestMethod], WebException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeRestMethodCommand

can someone help me out on what is the issue. The authentication is successfull though and is failing while trying to upload the file.

Using curl, the file upload is getting successfully completed though as can be seen below from the response:

C:\Users\sughosh>curl -X POST “https://uipath.dev.ciap.xpaas.io/odata/Processes/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.UploadPackage” -H “accept: application/json” -H “authorization: Bearer xxx” -H “Content-Type: multipart/form-data” -F “file=”@C:\TEMP\TestSumit.1.0.3.nupkg"

{“@odata.context”:“https://uipath.dev.ciap.xpaas.io/odata/$metadata#Collection(UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.BulkItemDto_1OfString)“,“value”:[{“Key”:“TestSumit.1.0.3.nupkg”,“Status”:“OK”,“Body”:”{\“Id\”:\“TestSumit\”,\“Version\”:\“1.0.1\”}”}]}

Please help out

Hi @Sumit_Ghosh1,

It is nice to see that you tried to get it done yourself! Kudos.

• Since you are stuck, you can try either using/learning the implementation of PowerShell module from UiPath. GitHub - UiPath/orchestrator-powershell: UiPath Orchestrator PowerShell cmdlet library
  If you get stuck see the relevant documentation here : orchestrator-powershell/docs at develop · UiPath/orchestrator-powershell · GitHub

• Another alternative source can be : CI, CD pipeline from Andre Barbu Azure DevOps CI/CD pipeline for UiPath projects - YouTube (See lines 24 and below for the syntax in PowerShell)

Good luck! You are going to enjoy doing this!
