Syntax

public static class UpdateFileExtensions

Methods

UpdateFileAsync(ConsensusClient, UpdateFileParams, Action<IConsensusContext>?)

Updates the properties or contents of an existing file stored in the network.

Declaration

public static Task<TransactionReceipt> UpdateFileAsync(this ConsensusClient client, UpdateFileParams updateParameters, Action<IConsensusContext>? configure = null)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ConsensusClient	client	The Consensus Node Client executing the file update.
UpdateFileParams	updateParameters	Update parameters indicating the file to update and what properties such as the access key or content that should be updated.
Action<IConsensusContext>	configure	Optional callback method providing an opportunity to modify the execution configuration for just this method call. It is executed prior to submitting the request to the network.

Returns

Type	Description
Task<TransactionReceipt>	A transaction receipt indicating the operation was successful.

Examples

Replace file contents (the 4KB cap applies — chunk larger writes):

// Overwrite the file's contents. The update transaction has a 4KB
// payload limit — for larger replacements, truncate and append via
// AppendFileAsync in chunks.
var receipt = await client.UpdateFileAsync(new UpdateFileParams
{
    File = file,
    Contents = newContents
});
Console.WriteLine($"Update status: {receipt.Status}");
