Scribe

Attach scribe job file

Records metadata for an already-uploaded organization-scoped scribe audio file, links that audio reference to the job, sets the job status to `UPLOADING`, and returns sanitized file and job metadata.

Route status

Public reference baseline

Generated endpoint contract may be shown with caveats, but external publication still needs route registry and release evidence.

Publication status

Baseline reference only

Requires E6 route registry and E9 release evidence before external publication. Also requires E2 side-effect policy and E4 file and artifact governance before production recipes, SDK inclusion, or try-out access.

Authentication

Bearer API key declared

OpenAPI declares bearer API-key security for this operation.

Tenant context

API-key organization

API-key organization context is authoritative; request organizationId is not a public tenant selector.

Side-effect summary

File or artifact

Touches documents, reports, transcripts, PDFs, EDI, or generated artifacts. Metadata is safer than raw content.

Source artifact

docs/openapi/openapi.json

OpenAPI 3.1.0; API 1.0.0.

When to use this endpoint

Use this page as an internal baseline for the prior auth and clinical contract generated for POST /api/v1/scribe/jobs/{jobId}/files. External use still depends on route classification, release evidence, and endpoint-specific side-effect approval.

What this does now

Documents the generated POST /api/v1/scribe/jobs/{jobId}/files contract as a file or artifact baseline endpoint.

What this does not do

Does not prove external GA readiness, SDK readiness, live production execution, or complete module behavior. Mutating behavior still needs side-effect and retry evidence.

Not public from this page

Live external side effects, file contents, credentials, webhooks, SDK promises, and production recipes are still gated.

Headers and tenancy

Current headers and tenant authority. Target headers stay labeled as future until OpenAPI and release evidence declare them.

HeaderRequiredCurrent statusNotes
AuthorizationYesCurrentBearer <QUICKRCM_API_KEY>. OpenAPI security: bearerAuth.
Idempotency-KeyNoTarget/futureDo not claim universal header support until E3 and OpenAPI metadata exist.
X-Request-IdNoTarget/futureUse for support correlation only after approved; not declared as a standard OpenAPI header today.

Required scopes

Unclassified until E6 route metadata exists; do not infer scopes from route names.

Wrong-org behavior

Tenant-safe 404, empty list, or 403 is endpoint-specific and remains an evidence gap until E1 is closed.

Actor and audit

No public actor, audit, or correlation contract is published from OpenAPI alone.

Idempotency and retries

Retry behavior is documented conservatively because universal idempotency headers are not declared.

TopicStatusGuidance
Current idempotencyNo idempotency mechanism is declared.Do not retry blindly. Check resource, status, batch, or job state before repeating the request.
Universal headerNot declaredDo not document universal Idempotency-Key support until OpenAPI and E3 evidence declare it.
Conflict behaviorUnresolvedSame-key changed-payload, in-flight retry, fingerprint scope, and TTL behavior remain endpoint-specific evidence gaps.

Async jobs and polling

Queued work is accepted work, not proof of completed workflow execution.

TopicStatusGuidance

Polling and terminal statesEndpoint-specificUse only operation-specific status endpoints visible in OpenAPI; generic job behavior, cancellation, retries, and retention are unresolved.

Files and artifacts

File-like routes need content-class, ownership, scanning, retention, and URL policy evidence before public recipes.

TopicStatusGuidance
Content classPotential file or artifactDocuments, PDFs, reports, transcripts, EDI, OCR, or generated artifacts need E4 classification before public examples.
Ownership and storage keysEvidence requiredTenant ownership must be proven before retrieval or upload docs. Never expose storage keys as public identifiers.
URLs, scanning, and retentionUnresolved unless endpoint-specific evidence existsShort-lived URLs, MIME limits, checksums, scanner status, retention, expiration, and legal hold behavior are not implied by OpenAPI examples.

Publication warnings

  • Universal Idempotency-Key header support is not declared; retry only after checking endpoint-specific state.
  • File and artifact examples must stay metadata-only until scanning, retention, ownership, and URL policy are approved.

Scribe public API.

Scribe public APIs expose organization-scoped clinical documentation job and template workflows for the AI Clinical Scribe module. The existing module docs describe Scribe as an ambient AI scribe that transcribes encounters and drafts SOAP notes; the public API surface narrows that product workflow to ten bearer-authenticated endpoints for jobs, file metadata attachment, asynchronous processing, attestation, and reusable templates. Tenant context comes from the bearer API key. Public callers should not send `organizationId` or `orgId` tenant selectors. Read endpoints require Scribe read-capable credentials (`scribe:read` or `scribe:write`), while create, update, attach, attest, process, and template-write endpoints require `scribe:write` credentials. The job lifecycle is asynchronous. `createScribeJob` creates a local job in `UPLOADING` status and immediately attempts to enqueue processing with the supplied audio reference. status=QUEUED`. Neither endpoint performs inline transcription, inline note generation, or synchronous clinical validation. The public contract is intentionally conservative around clinical data and files. List responses return job summaries and `hasFinalNote` indicators, not raw transcripts, final notes, audio URLs, signed URLs, storage references, or vendor payloads. Detail and write responses can include `finalNote`, so examples and guidance must treat it as clinical documentation that can contain Protected Health Information (PHI). File attachment records metadata for an already-uploaded organization-scoped audio file and returns sanitized file metadata; it does not upload file bytes, create presigned URLs, or echo storage references. Template endpoints manage reusable prompt configuration and should not be documented as patient-specific note content.

What this endpoint does

Use case
Use this endpoint when the scribe job already exists and the integration has completed file upload through a separate trusted upload path. Follow with queueScribeJobProcessing when the job should be processed.
Before calling
Authenticate with a Scribe write-capable API key. Ensure the target job belongs to the API-key organization and the provided storage reference is organization-scoped.

Request and response behavior

Request guidance
`fileName`, `fileType`, `fileSize`, and `s3Key` are required. `fileName` and `fileType` are capped at 255 characters. `fileSize` must be an integer from 1 byte through 104857600 bytes. `s3Key` is capped at 2048 characters and must not contain relative path segments. Optional `fileUrl` is capped at 2048 characters. Do not send file bytes in this request.
  • This endpoint does not upload file bytes or create a presigned upload URL.
  • If fileUrl is supplied, implementation stores fileUrl as the job audio reference; otherwise it stores the submitted storage reference.
  • Use only synthetic placeholders in docs for storage references.
Response semantics
HTTP 200 returns `data.status=ATTACHED`, `externalUploadSkipped=true`, a sanitized file object, and the updated job. Public responses do not echo fileUrl, s3Key, signed URLs, or any raw audio content.
  • externalUploadSkipped is always true for the public wrapper.
  • file includes id, organizationId, filename, mimeType, and sizeBytes.
  • The returned job can include finalNote, but attach responses normally only update file linkage and status.

Errors and retries

Treat 400 as invalid metadata or storage reference shape, 404 as a missing or wrong-organization job, 401/403 as credential or tenant authorization failure, and 429 as a backoff signal. Avoid retrying blindly if the first request may already have created the file metadata record.
  • 400 can indicate fileName/fileType length violations, fileSize outside 1 to 104857600, an overlong storage reference, or a relative path segment in the storage reference.
  • 404 can mean jobId is outside the authenticated organization.
  • Do not surface raw storage keys or signed URLs in client-facing errors.

Template boundary before examples

The route class, authentication state, tenancy rule, side-effect mode, idempotency status, async behavior, file policy, warnings, links, and evidence above are part of the endpoint contract. Treat generated examples below as internal baseline aids until release evidence closes.
