Complete an upload
Finalises the file after every part has landed.
Permission
The key must be granted files.write
A key without it gets 403 insufficient_scope, with the missing permission named in details.
Takes no body. Assembles the parts into the file and answers with it; the session is finished and cannot take more parts.
Path parameters
| Field | Type | Description |

session required |

Request
curl https://api.veruapis.com/v1/files/uploads/:session/complete \
-X POST \
-H "Authorization: Bearer vak_live_..." \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)"Idempotency-Key is required on every write. Retrying with the same key returns the original response rather than repeating the operation, so a timeout is something you retry rather than something you investigate.

}Takes no body. The stored content type is sniffed from the assembled bytes rather than taken from what you declared at init.
Every failure uses the same shape, with a stable string code you can branch on. See the error reference.
