Hello,
I am running into issues getting this to work.
What I'm trying to do is upload a "PDF" to our system using API commands in Powershell. I've been able to upload "documents" from my disk drive, but when I try to view them they are either "Document not found" or "Cannot
open this PDF" or ""The input is not a valid Base-64 string as it contains a non-base 64 character". If it is successful, the PDF is blank. I've tried different methods: encoding/decoding in a variety of ways, I've tried opening it in several
different programs- doesn't seem like nothing is working and I'm losing sleep.
Below is my code for just straight upload:
$fileName = "C:\files\Test1.pdf"
$data = ConvertTo-Json @{
encrypted="false";
allowSaveBinaryData="True";
binaryData=$fileName;
divider="Expense Report";
isMultipageImage="true";
extension="pdf";
name="Test1.pdf";
relProjectId="31";
}
$addproject="https://ENDPOINT URL.com/v4/documents/597?guid=$temp&fbsite=https://MYURL.com/"
Invoke-RestMethod -ContentType 'application/json' -Method PUT -Body $data -Uri $addproject
Below is my code I tried using encoding/decoding:
$fileName = "C:\files\Test1.pdf"
$fileContent = get-content -raw $fileName
$fileContentBytes = [System.Text.Encoding]::Unicode.GetBytes($fileContent)
$fileContentEncoded = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($fileContentBytes)
$data = ConvertTo-Json @{
encrypted="false";
allowSaveBinaryData="True";
binaryData=$fileContentEncoded;
divider="Expense Report";
isMultipageImage="true";
extension="pdf";
name="Test1.pdf";
relProjectId="31";
}
$addproject="https://ENDPOINT URL.com/v4/documents/597?guid=$temp&fbsite=https://MYURL.com/"
Invoke-RestMethod -ContentType 'application/json' -Method PUT -Body $data -Uri $addproject
