Re: Rest API - need help in sending attachment
Hi Johan,
Thank you for the suggestion. I will try this out. It would be better if
there's something at framework level that avoids the extra implementation
as the attachments are very much needed in the application.

Re: Rest API - need help in sending attachment
Hi Rishi,
A suggestion that I have used previously was to encode a file as
base64, send it as part of the JSON body and rebuild it within a java
service, this way multiple files can also be uploaded:
{
"files": [
{
"file_name": "fileName.pdf",
"content_type": "application/pdf",
"file_content": "base64 encoded string of file content"
}
]
}
There may be better suggestions
Kind Regards,
Johan

Rest API - need help in sending attachment
Hi, I am trying to send attachment in a post request and I am unable to. I've used multipart/* as the consumer content-type and it's not working. I tried to debug and found that post request takes only application/json. The OPTIONS request had all the types supported and I tried that as well. Added a switch case for OPTIONS in apply method of RestRequestHandler class but was not successful. Can someone please let me know how can I achieve this? Thank you. Rishi
