# Prepare client intake Autofill supporting-file upload

`client_intake_applications.prepare_autofill_file_upload`

Prepare a five-minute upload of a supporting document for Autofill. Read preparation first. POST multipart field file to the returned URL using transfer_token as the Bearer credential. No API key is needed. Read the upload receipt and preparation again before starting Autofill. This does not start Autofill or change application answers. Limit: 25 MiB per file. Retry the same bytes at the returned URL while its credential is valid. After completion, do not prepare the upload again with the old preparation revision. Use a new idempotency_key for a new upload.
