Uploading HTML Complete and HTML Mask:

You will need to upload the HTML files again. In the update service response, you will find two response URLs. These have a lifespan of 5 minutes; after this time, they will no longer be valid. At this point, you should have the HTML Complete and HTML Mask files ready and upload the binaries of these files in PUT requests to each of these URLs.

curl

# Upload HTML Mask
curl -X PUT https://signed_url_mask \
  -H "Content-Type: text/html" \
  -d @mask.html

# Upload HTML Complete
curl -X PUT https://signed_url_complete \
  -H "Content-Type: text/html" \
  -d @complete.html

Python

import requests

def upload_html_files(mask_url, complete_url):
    """

    try:

Important

Signed URLs expire in 5 minutes. You must complete the upload before this time expires. If they expire, there is no way to regenerate them — you'll need to call PUT /template again.

Skip upload if HTML didn't change

If you're only updating config, sign, or signatureProfile and the HTML is unchanged, you can ignore the returned URLs and skip the upload entirely. The server will keep the HTMLs from the previous version.
