# Create a Portfolio File Upload Request

**POST /portfolio_file_upload_requests**

Create a presigned S3 POST upload request for a portfolio file upload.

File uploads use a three-step flow:
1. Create an upload request to receive a temporary S3 upload URL and required POST parameters.
2. Upload the file directly to S3 with a multipart/form-data POST. Include every key/value pair from `fields` as form parameters, followed by the file as the file part.
3. Finalize the upload by creating a portfolio file with `upload_request_id`.

Upload requests expire after 15 minutes and can only be finalized once.
