Is there any way to send a media file as part of a request in Spring Boot? - request

Question

I am new in programming and seeking for a solution to my problem. Here, I am going to describe my problem in as much clarity as I can.
So, I am working on a problem where I have to create an API which is going to accept (String1, String2, Mediafile(mp3), Mediafile(txt)) and then I have to upload these files somewhere else.
Here, I want to know do we expect Media Files in the byte[] format or is there any way that I can get that Mediafile as it is(Not in Byte format).

byte[] myReport = report.getBytes();
byte[] myTranscription = transcription.getBytes();
studentReport.setTranscription(myTranscription);
studentReport.setReport(myReport);
return studentReport;
}
