Steps
Obtain an API key scoped to the Permitting & Licensing product as described in the Developer Portal's App Management section
Locate the Record Attachments entry under the Permitting & Licensing API in the API Catalog to confirm the operations available for the agency's instance
Identify the target record using its record identifier within the agency's OpenGov Permitting & Licensing workspace
Call the documented attachment operations to list, retrieve, or upload files associated with that record
Verify the uploaded or retrieved attachment appears against the correct record inside the OpenGov Permitting & Licensing UI
Known gotchas
Record Attachments functionality is scoped to the Permitting & Licensing product specifically and is documented separately from other OpenGov Public Service Platform APIs
Exact request/response schemas can vary by OpenGov release, so the API Catalog entry for the agency's active version should be consulted rather than assuming a fixed global schema
