To upload a file from your filesystem, use the `--form` argument. This causes
cURL to post data using the header `Content-Type: multipart/form-data` .
The `file=` parameter must point to a file on your filesystem and be preceded
by `@` . For example:
```shell
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: < your_access_token > " --form "file=@dk.png" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/groups/1/wikis/attachments"
```
Example response:
```json
{
"file_name" : "dk.png",
"file_path" : "uploads/6a061c4cf9f1c28cb22c384b4b8d4e3c/dk.png",
"branch" : "master",
"link" : {
"url" : "uploads/6a061c4cf9f1c28cb22c384b4b8d4e3c/dk.png",
"markdown" : ""
}
}
```
