Making a multipart/form-data request to an api endpoint: https://api-reference.smartling.com/#tag/Files%2Fpaths%2F~1files-api~1v2~1projects~1%7BprojectId%7D~1file%2Fpost
I'm using python requests module with this syntax:
headers = {
'Authorization': 'Bearer ...',
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
}
files = {'file': open('myfile.xliff', 'rb')}
data = {
'fileUri': '...',
'fileType': 'xliff',
...
}
requests.request('POST', endpoint, headers=headers, files=files, data=data)
I am receiving an error from the endpoint unfortunately it just gives me a general http 500 error.
This does work fine if I manually do it via curl:
curl -XPOST -H 'Authorization: Bearer ...' -F "[email protected]' -F "fileUri=..." ...
So I don't believe its the endpoint not accepting a proper request.
Does this curl statement and this python call seem equivalent? Been stuck on this problem, I have tried the following resources:
https://github.com/spulec/uncurl
To try and get a curl to python equivalent for verification.
Unfortunately uncurl cannot parse my curl statement at all despite it working and curl.trillworks gives me a malformed 'files' dictionary and no 'data':
files = {
'file': ('myfile.xliff.;type', open('myfile.xliff;type', 'rb')),
'fileUri': (None, 'myfile.xliff'),
'fileType': (None, 'xliff'),
}
which is incorrect. (I tried it anyways as I was stuck)
