  From an external API? If you can get the file in the form of a file on disk or file buffer, yes this is possible.

  
  
  

  Here is an example of how to upload from disk using the local API:

  https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/master/test/uploads/config.ts#L162
  
  

  You'd need a media collection to upload to, then a relationship field on a separate collection with

  relationTo: 'mediaSlug'
