Upload zip file from filesystem

You need to upload the .zip file of your .app directory containing your EarlGrey test cases to BrowserStack servers. Its easy to upload the .zip file from your local filesystem or CI/CD server to BrowserStack using the REST API.

Here is an example cURL request to upload an EarlGrey zip file :

curl -u "YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
-X POST "https://api-cloud.browserstack.com/app-automate/earlgrey/app-dir"\
 -F "file=@/path/to/app/file/appDir.zip"

A sample response to the above API request is shown below :

{
    "test_url":"bs://j3c874f21852ba57957a3fdc33f47514288c4ba4"
}

Please note the value of test_url in the API response (bs://j3c874f2185.... in the above example). This value will be used later to specify the appDir for your EarlGrey test execution.
