Upload File Using the HTTP Connector

I am attempting to upload a file to an API endpoint using the HTTP connector. The file is located in Box and I have used the 'Download File' action in the Box connector to download the file in the previous step. When I attempt to upload the file to the endpoint however, it's not understanding the contents as a file. Our vendor - the owner of the endpoint we're trying to upload to - has advised they need "the actual file". I'm assuming I have to transform the file contents in some manner, but I'm lost as to how.

Hi Blake,


Apologies for the delayed response on this topic.


May you please provide us the API documentation so we can advise on how you can pass the file contents properly to the endpoint? We may need to convert the file contents from Box in a format that the API is expecting us to pass.


You can also try using .encode formulas to convert file encoding.


Thanks,


Aaron
