**Description**  
I’m attempting to submit an app to the app marketplace. I’m unable to upload the technical design documents. Looking at the network calls, there’s a 400 for an upload API call.

PATCH [https://marketplace.zoom.us/api/v1/files/{fileID}/upload](https://marketplace.zoom.us/api/v1/files/%7BfileID%7D/upload)

**How To Reproduce**

1. Go to Technical Design section of the app submission flow
2. Attempt to upload a file

I’m having this issue too and have been trying to get in touch with someone from zoom all day. I can personally confirm that I’ve tried all formats and they still don’t work. it’s a server error

Same issue for me! I’ve tried to upload PNG as well as PDF. Here’s a video example: [Monosnap](https://monosnap.com/file/KgDh3UdnhQccSaL4XngTy9CBjQa6ja)

Same same for me. I upload files for the TDD form and it never registers the questions as being answered. Navigating away from the page removes the uploads.

</div>

Can only confirm, this happens for all types of uploads, from PNG to PDF files. The result is exactly the same as @mustache-pimiento mentioned: a 400 response to the `PATCH` call to [https://marketplace.zoom.us/api/v1/files/{fileID}/upload](https://marketplace.zoom.us/api/v1/files/%7BfileID%7D/upload)

As others have mentioned, the issue is not due to incorrect file type. I find this suggestion to be condescending. I provided information on the failing network call and steps to reproduce the issue. Did you attempt to reproduce the problem? This is a developer forum, so I feel we should get some benefit of the doubt.

Hi @all,

Unfortunately, I still observe the 400 HTTP response for the `PATCH` request @mustache-pimiento mentioned in the original post. Hence, I am afraid I cannot confirm that it would have been resolved for me.

Would you mind escalating this further one more time?

Thanks!
