# Create a test-results upload

> Starts an upload of one CI run's test results to a collection. `PUT` the results bundle to the returned `uploadUrl` before `expiresAt`. A repository Trunk does not know is created when `remoteUrls` is sent. Requires the **Upload test results** permission.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi-v2.json post /v2/test-collections/{id}/uploads
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Trunk API
  version: 2.0.0
  description: >-
    The Trunk public API. Every endpoint is scoped to a single organization and
    requires a credential.


    ## Authentication


    For automation, send an API key as `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. An
    organization admin creates one in the Trunk app under **Settings → Developer
    → API Keys**, and chooses the merge-queue permissions it holds. A key with
    no permissions can read merge queues but change nothing. Those permissions
    scope merge queue only: every key can use the Flaky Tests and Dynamic CI
    endpoints, including their writes, whatever permissions it holds.


    A short-lived first-party token in the `x-trunk-token` header is what the
    `trunk` CLI sends after `trunk auth login`.


    A GitHub Actions job can upload impacted targets with no Trunk secret: the
    `trunk-io/login` action exchanges the run's own GitHub credential (its OIDC
    token, or on a pull request from a fork its `GITHUB_TOKEN`) for a
    short-lived first-party token. That token is accepted only by `PUT
    /v2/impacted-targets`, for the run's own repository — and on a fork pull
    request, only for that pull request and its head sha.


    ## Errors


    Every 4xx and 5xx response is a `ErrorResponse`: `{ "error": { "code",
    "message" } }`. Switch on `code`, which is stable; `message` is prose and
    may change at any time.


    **An authorization denial on a read is reported as `404`, not `403`** —
    whether a resource exists must not leak across organizations, so a resource
    in another organization is indistinguishable from one that does not exist.
    `403 INSUFFICIENT_PERMISSIONS` means the credential is valid but is not
    permitted the action (or carries no organization).


    Every response carries an `X-Request-Id` header. Quote it in support
    requests.


    ## Rate limiting


    Requests are limited per organization (currently 100 requests/second).
    Exceeding it returns `429` with `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED`; retry with backoff.
    Note that the limit is enforced at the edge, which does not yet wrap its
    `429` in the `ErrorResponse` envelope described above — treat any `429` as
    rate limiting regardless of body.


    ## Compatibility


    Within v2, Trunk may add: new endpoints, new **optional** response fields,
    new members to any enum (including new `code` values, new queue-entry
    states, and new providers), and new optional request parameters. **Clients
    must tolerate values and fields they do not recognize** rather than failing
    closed — a client that switches exhaustively over an enum will break when a
    member is added. Removals and semantic changes require a new major version.


    ## Provider support


    Merge queues, verification runs and checks are **GitHub-only** today;
    `Check.provider` has a single member for that reason. Impacted-target
    uploads additionally require a `github.com` repository named `owner/repo`.
    The `Provider` enum lists values the repository index can store, not
    surfaces that are fully supported.


    ## Not yet available


    A pull request's numeric **position** in its queue is not exposed, and list
    responses are not ordered by queue position. `GET
    /v2/merge-queues/{id}/order` returns the order the engine will consider pull
    requests in, but an array index there is not a wait: use a pending entry's
    `directlyAhead` rather than counting, and `GET
    /v2/pull-requests/{id}/queue-entry-estimate` for when it is expected to
    merge (on queues that serve estimates). This API delivers no events of its
    own — poll it, or subscribe to [Merge Queue's
    webhooks](https://docs.trunk.io/merge-queue/webhooks). `Idempotency-Key` is
    not yet honored, so a mutation that times out must be reconciled by reading
    the resource back rather than blindly retried.
