Hi,

If you only need to pass the path of the jpg try to put before the tRestClient a tWriteJsonField with the adequat structure here I think it's { "photo" : "C:/PATHOFPICTURES" } and then a main row from the writeJsonField to tRestClient. It's the main row which gives body to tRestClient.

However if it's an image, it would be helpful to know what does it means ? Is it a matrix of the images wich is needed ? Or something else ?

Photo is not a query parameter. In postman it appears as body. To pass it as body you will need to pass the information by the row and adding other component to structure it the way your api wants it. If it wants JSON you need to read a json file per exemple (or write a json field) with the adequate strucutre 🙂 An easy solution to test it rappidely is to put a a tfixedflow before your tRestclient and then you add one variable "body" at your schema with the type string. Then you give it the value "{ \"photo\" : \"Path_of_your_photo\" }". Then you put a main row between tfixedflow and trestclient. This is an exemple if the body must be JSON and that's the path that you want to send.

Hmmm however you said that wasn't the path that you wanted to send but the pictures itself ? So, for that I would say try to see I you can retrieve an exemple of the body wich is really sent in postman and not just a postman vizualisation maybe it could help you to debug ?

Sorry I can't help more, but maybe those ideas would help 🙂

@Ann-Gaëlle Gouerec​ I have tried with JSON structure but its throwing me error because tRestClient component body data type is document

Hi @Juanita miles​ ,

Did you name the column that contains your json string, "string" too ?

If it's still not working with this name you can delete "body" of your schema of trestclient for the entry. Like that it will know that the entry only have the string and nothing else.

@Ann-Gaëlle Gouerec​ 

I have created one context variable as ImagePath & in which I am give value "{ \"photo\" : \"Path_of_my_photo\" }" & then in tfixedflow I created one column , in which I'm giving context variable value

tFixedFlow column data type is string & tRestClient "body" data type is document so I can't put this value in tRestClient & if I'm putting row6.body value in out13.string then I'm getting error.

Error: {"message":"An error occurred.","trackingNumber":"75f52e..........78e8c8f"}
