Prajapati.Lakhan Image upload using multipart/form-data
Hi,
I have to upload an image to third party storage server using REST API, It does not support 'base64' content-transfer-encoding and salesforce does not allow to send binary content using string ( I guess), because when we convert blob into string, it gets converted to ascii characters. Is there any way to convert blob into byte [ ] or binary stream to post binary content.
Here is my sample code for the requirement. -
<apex:form>
<apex:inputFile value="{!fileContent}" fileName="{!name}" fileSize="{!size}"/>
<apex:commandButton value="Upload" action="{!uploadImage}"/>
</apex:form>
/************Controller Code*************/
Public Blob fileContent {get;set;}
Public Integer size {get;set;}
public String name {get;set;}
String body = '-----------------------------153501500631101\r\n';
body = body + 'Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Filedata"; filename="testImg.png"\r\n';
body = body + 'Content-Type: image/png\r\n\r\n';
body = body + fileContent.toString() + '\r\n';
body = body + '-----------------------------153501500631101--\r\n';
Any help will be apriciated. Thanks in anvance....

Thanks Paul for the prompt reply.
It works fine with text/csv content, but I need to upload an image, is there any way in salesforce to convert base64 into binary content with encoding?
Thanks

Try this solution: http://enreeco.blogspot.it/2013/01/salesforce-apex-post-mutipartform-data.html
I've messed with Blob, Encoding, Decoding and HttpResponse
I'm having similar problem:
I am trying to make HTTP POST request with multipart/form-data, the problem is that the request is sent but without the body part. I was trying the solution: http://enreeco.blogspot.it/2013/01/salesforce-apex-post-mutipartform-data.html, but it doesn't worked for me. I think it is the same problem as: http://boards.developerforce.com/t5/Apex-Code-Development/Image-upload-using-multipart-form-data/m-p/243335/highlight/true#M42610. Will this issue be solved? Is there any alternative to HttpRequest?
