p.At("files", "456", "move").With("to", "home").Post();

Curl Code Sample: Move a File

The following command moves a file to a specified page. Both target file ID and destination page ID must be specified. In the following sample, a file with file ID "1" is moved to the page with page ID "2".

Sample Code

curl -u username:password -d "" -i http://mindtouch.address/@api/deki/files/1/move?to=2

Implementation notes 

curl flags

-u
Basic HTTP authentication. Sends a username and password to server so it can verify whether a user is of privilege to perform specific operation.
-d
Specifies a POST request. No data needs to be sent to process this request, so an empty string is sent ("").
-i
Includes the HTTP response header in the output. Useful for debugging.

Example

An image of a popular meme needs to be moved to the Meme page (page ID = 68). The image has an ID value of 3.

Sample Code

curl -u username:password -d "" -i http://192.168.168.110/@api/deki/files/3/move?to=68
