Upload image to Laravel based server using API's post method

Question

I am building a Laravel-based web API. In the project, we want to upload image using post method to the API server directly via an Android/iOS app. How can we do it?

Answer 1

The server will take a POST request from clients with media file properly if you are posting a file with Content-Type as multipart/form-data.

See documentation on how you can accept/save files in laravel.

See this thread to see how you can post a multipart/form-data POST in android for reference.
