Uploading P&ID diagrams to CDF Through Python SDK [Community Contributed]

If you want to use the Python-SDK, there is a method in the FilesAPI: https://cognite-sdk-python.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/core_data_model.html#upload-a-file-or-directory

You would call it for example like this to upload a P&ID, which I assume is in a PDF format on your local drive.

from cognite.client import CogniteClient
from pathlib import Path


client = CogniteClient()

data_set_id = client.data_sets.retrieve("src:p&id").id
my_PandID = Path("data/my_super_P&ID.pdf")

client.files.upload(
    my_PandID,
    external_id=f"file:p&id:{my_PandID.name.replace(' ', '_')}",
    name=my_PandID.name,
    mime_type="application/pdf",
    data_set_id=data_set_id,
)
