This is what I was trying to get at a few messages ago. Maybe WEB GET BODY PART does support chunked encoding, but that is irrelevant if the client side does not support it. As best I can tell from Jim's description is he is using a standard HTML multipart form with a file input. Javascript is not involved, so having this work depends on the browser's support for switching to chunked encoding. I don't know if web browsers directly support it or if there is some magic you can add to the form to request it. If not, there seem to be plenty of Javascript libraries that can do it. So then the task becomes redoing the form with the Javascript library instead of relying on the standard HTML form implementation.
I found this Javascript example, which looks simple to implement. https://gist.github.com/shiawuen/1534477 John DeSoi, Ph.D. > On Jan 9, 2020, at 3:38 AM, Epperlein, Lutz (agendo) via 4D_Tech > <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > > I'm not sure if I understand your environment in which you would do that file > upload.

Using 4D as a client shouldn't be a problem.
