Hello Ravi Kiran Para,
I hope that chapter 8 in the following document has sufficient detail.
IBM Cognos Software Development Kit Version 11.1.0 : Developer Guide

Hello, Henk Cazemier
I appreciate your response. I am familiar with the procedure for creating a new export deployment, as you described in the first option. Can we implement it with IBM Cognos SDK? If yes, could you provide any guidelines or supporting documentation?

Hi Ravi Kran Para,
There is no api available to retrieve uploaded files. There are two options:
1 - create a deployment, run it and export it. A deployment is allowed to contain uploaded data.
2 - for each table that is based on an uploaded file, create a report and write its output to a csv file, which you can retrieve via the Cognos SDK.
There is no REST api available to create deployments.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have further questions or would like to do a conference call.

Subject: Promoting uploadedFile Objects from one Cognos Environment Content Store to Another using Cognos SDK & REST API
Hey,
I'm developing a use case that will allow me to promote objects to another Cognos environment from one Cognos environment's Content store. I am capable of promoting every object. However, I can promote the file while using the Cognos SDK to promote the uploadedFile object, but the contents are not available. I used the IBM Cognos REST API to try the same thing. I tried utilizing the REST API to upload a local file using the API to the Content store, but I was unable to locate the API endpoint in the Swagger doc to download the files from the Content store. I need someone to help me with this.
