Did you use the FAQ section?

• Yes, I have read the FAQ and I found no solution/answer there.

What you did?

1.# Variables
$privateBinUrl = "https://privatebin.shared.cloud.int/api/v2/paste"
$content = "This is the content of your paste"
$pasteData = @{
v = 2
a = 0
paste = [Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($content))
expire = "1day" # options: "5min", "10min", "1hour", "1day", "1week", "1month", "1year", "never"
}

Convert data to JSON

$jsonData = $pasteData | ConvertTo-Json -Compress

Ignore SSL errors (only for testing purposes, not recommended for production)

Add-Type @"
using System.Net;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;

public class TrustAllCertsPolicy : ICertificatePolicy {
public bool CheckValidationResult(
ServicePoint srvPoint, X509Certificate certificate,
WebRequest request, int certificateProblem) {
return true;
}
}
"@
[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::CertificatePolicy = New-Object TrustAllCertsPolicy

try {
# Send POST request
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $privateBinUrl -Method Post -Body $jsonData -ContentType "application/json"
# Output response
Write-Output "Paste created successfully: $($response.url)"
} catch {
Write-Error "Failed to create paste: $_"
}

Paste created successfully:

Two things:

1. You should get back a JSON with a partial URL, which you then combine with the base58-endoced key you used to encrypt the message, to get the full URL:

From: https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/API

{"status": 0, "id": "[pasteID]", "url": "[serverAddress?pasteID]", "deletetoken": "[deleteToken]"}

More details on the URL format: https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Encryption-format#url-format-of-the-paste

2. Someone had shared their PowerShell API implementation in an issue last year - Are you using theirs or is this a new implementation?
