I am trying to send an array as value for a hash key in a POST multipart request.
input = {"attribute"=> ["Countries:India", "Category:Can"]}
post("url")
.request_format_multipart_form.payload(input)
This works when using Ruby's HTTP and also POSTMAN. I can also see the differences between how Postman and Workato handles the form data.
Postman:
----------------------------428750340837882951989223
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="attribute"
Category:Test
----------------------------428750340837882951989223
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="attribute"
Countries:India
----------------------------428750340837882951989223--
Workato:
------RubyFormBoundaryhokO7A27Xb6cdSEz
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="attribute"; filename="attribute"
Content-Type: Category:Can
Countries:India
------RubyFormBoundaryhokO7A27Xb6cdSEz--
Why does Workato consider an array as a file? or am I wrong with the call?
I solved this by changing the request type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded and encode the input parameters as form data in the body (Using encode_www_form).
input = {"attribute"=> ["Countries:India", "Category:Can"]}
input = input.encode_www_form
post("url",input)
.request_format_www_form_urlencoded

I am currently trying to submit a request using the Swagger Inspector using multipart/form-data header to allow the submission of a file in conjunction with json data.
The JSON body of my request looks like:
And the headers with file upload look like:
For requests where I am just sending json to the server the Content-Type header is set to application/json and it is able to read from the body box. However I do not understand how this interface allows me to specify that the information coming from the body field is json and despite there being files on on the request.
I have seen requests that define multiple data types using the Conetent-Disspostion header, that look this this (reffenced from this Stack Overflow Post):
POST / HTTP/1.1
[[ Less interesting headers ... ]]

My question would be how do I create a request in swagger inspector that accepts multiple data types? It seems like I would need to set mulple sections in the body separated by boundaries with multiple Content-Disposition and Content-Type's for each. Would there be a cleaner way to do that through the Swagger Inspector interface? Or am I going about this in the wrong way?
Thanks!
Swagger Inspector currently supports multipart/form-data requests containing one or more files. It does not support arbitrary body parts in multipart requests (e.g. a file + JSON or text data). You'll need to use another HTTP client to test such requests.
You can submit feature request for Swagger Inspector here:

I'm facing an issue trying to send multiples files from a ReactJS App to a Symfony Backend.
I upload two files but only one is visible in my Symfony backend.
Data are sent from a ReactJS dropzone, I well checked that the two files are sent via formData, I well used the 'content-type': 'multipart/form-data' to post the data.
In Chrome Newtwork Tab, the Form Data details shows that two files are well attached to the request :
------WebKitFormBoundaryTif9sihCtI30UXXS Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="glacier-583419_960_720.jpg"
Content-Type: image/jpeg
------WebKitFormBoundaryTif9sihCtI30UXXS Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="image-ile.jpg" Content-Type:
image/jpeg
Nevertheless, in my Symfony backend the File Parameter Bag only shows one file :
return $request->files;
Serialized response :
{
"parameters": {
"file": {
"test": false,
"original_name": "glacier-583419_960_720.jpg",
"mime_type": "image/jpeg",
"error": 0
}
},
"file_keys": [
"error",
"name",
"size",
"tmp_name",
"type"
]
}
As you can see, in "parameters", only one file is present instead of two.
Is anybody already encountered this problem ? I don't have any idea of what could be the issue ?
I solved my issue, it was trivial but it could help someone else for future readings.
As per indicated in the Form Data sent :
------WebKitFormBoundaryTif9sihCtI30UXXS Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="glacier-583419_960_720.jpg" Content-Type: image/jpeg
------WebKitFormBoundaryTif9sihCtI30UXXS Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="image-ile.jpg" Content-Type: image/jpeg
Each element added in the Form Data had the same name value.
Here is the problem :
var tempFormData = new FormData();
setFormData(acceptedFiles.map((file)=>{
tempFormData.append('file', file);
}));
Corrected code :
var tempFormData = new FormData();
setFormData(acceptedFiles.map((file)=>{
tempFormData.append(file.name, file);
}));
So the error was not coming from Symfony but from front-end App not well formatting the data sent.
I have been trying to insert files using Salesforce Chatter REST API but its been documented for curl. I am unable to find how to do the same in Angularjs using $http with visualforce. I am not able to set the request header and body properly. Please provide the header and body contents for the request, if this has to be done using javascript rather than curl.
Example for creating a new Document
curl https://yourInstance.salesforce.com/services/data/v23.0/sobjects/Document/
-H "Authorization: Bearer token"
-H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data;boundary=\"boundary_string\""
--data-binary #newdocument.json
Example request body for creating a new Document
This code is the contents of newdocument.json. The binary data for the PDF content has been omitted for brevity and replaced
with “Binary data goes here.” An actual request contains the full binary content.
--boundary_string
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="entity_document";
Content-Type: application/json
{
"Description" : "Marketing brochure for Q1 2011",
"Keywords" : "marketing,sales,update",
"FolderId" : "005D0000001GiU7",
"Name" : "Marketing Brochure Q1",
"Type" : "pdf"
}
--boundary_string
Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Body"; filename="2011Q1MktgBrochure.pdf"
Binary data goes here.
--boundary_string--
I am using react and antd.
The component I am using from antd is Drag and Drop.
I am trying to send multipart/form-data using FormData object.
It sends the file (.zip file that should be sent as blob) but it does not send it as blob nor anything related to the other keys and values.
Here's a Sandbox.
Expected Request Payload:
------WebKitFormBoundaryysdTGvf0cRZVGpQ4
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="aFileName.zip"
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
[0,1,2]
------WebKitFormBoundaryysdTGvf0cRZVGpQ4
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="x2"
y2
------WebKitFormBoundaryysdTGvf0cRZVGpQ4
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="x3"
true
------WebKitFormBoundaryysdTGvf0cRZVGpQ4
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="x4"
2
------WebKitFormBoundaryysdTGvf0cRZVGpQ4
Actual Request Paylod:
------WebKitFormBoundaryysdTGvf0cRZVGpQ4
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="aFileName.zip"
Content-Type: application/zip
------WebKitFormBoundaryysdTGvf0cRZVGpQ4
I have used customRequest to solve this problem.
You can find an example here: Send multipart/form-data with antd upload #11616
If you just want to use <Upload> as a file input and only have <Form> submit the file for you, here is my solution
I'm trying to upload a file using POST
here's my request :
POST /upload.php HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------552335022525
Content-Length: 192
-----------------------------552335022525
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="userfile"; filename="12.txt"
Content-Type: text/plain
blabla
-----------------------------552335022525--
Using HTTP live headers firefox plugin everything works
but when putting it a char *buffer and send it with winsocksapi I get 400 Bad Request error
You need a blank line between the headers and the payload.
Content-Length: 192
-----------------------------552335022525
This is part of the HTTP protocol. HTTP request headers end with the first empty line (CR-LF by itself.) What you are sending is resulting in the string
-----------------------------552335022525
being taken (along with the following two lines) as a request header which, of course, it isn't. The server can't make head or tail of that, so it responds with 400 Bad Request.
Also, sending the Content-length is not necessary with multipart/form-data, nor even a good idea, as the wrong value could create problems. The MIME multipart format is self describing.
