NOTES

You can retrieve the filenames and attachment ID’s with the command list_attachment. An example of this command is:

Generates this result:

The optional access_token parameter allows you to use a valid OAuth2 token obtained with the get_token command.  If you provide the access_token parameter, then the user_id and password parameters should not be provided.  This prevents the password being sent in clear text over your network connection.
