Name Type Description
bold = required
value info[] The array of all of the files that are stored within the given library item.
value[].checksum_info checksum_info A checksum for validating the content of the file.

This value can be used to verify that a transfer was completed without errors.

Optional. A checksum cannot always be calculated, and the value will be unset if the file does not have content.
value[].checksum_info.algorithm string The checksum algorithm (SHA1, MD5) used to calculate the checksum.

Optional. If not specified the default checksum algorithm is SH_a1.
value[].checksum_info.checksum string The checksum value calculated with content.library.item.file.checksum_info.algorithm.
value[].name string The name of the file.

This value will be unique within the library item for each file. It cannot be an empty string.
value[].size long The file size, in bytes. The file size is the storage used and not the uploaded or provisioned size. For example, when uploading a disk to a datastore, the amount of storage that the disk consumes may be different from the disk file size. When the file is not cached, the size is 0.
value[].cached boolean Indicates whether the file is on disk or not.
value[].version string The version of this file; incremented when a new copy of the file is uploaded.

Errors:
