通过 Postman 发送多部分/表单数据请求的困难

Question

please, this is y concern: I'll like to know how to query a web service defined as in the below code using postman for test purposes. PS: I can't change the method signature

I have a web service like this:

@POST
@Path("/uploadOpenAccountRequestFiles/{requestId}")
@Consumes({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON,MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA})
public Response uploadOpenAccountRequestFiles(@PathParam("requestId") String requestId,
        MultipartFormDataInput multipartFormDataInput)
        throws JsonGenerationException, JsonMappingException, IOException {

    initContext();
    logger.info("DIGIBANK : uploadOpenAccountRequestFiles END: ");

    String msge = "";
    try {
        digiBean.saveToserver(requestId, multipartFormDataInput);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        msge = e.getMessage();
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    org.af.webservice.Response resp = new org.af.webservice.Response(
            request.getSession().getId(), "uploadOpenAccountRequestFiles", "",
            msge.equalsIgnoreCase("OK") ? true : false, msge.equalsIgnoreCase("OK") ? false : true, "",
            msge.equalsIgnoreCase("OK") ? true : false, "Boolean", msge);

    logger.info("DIGIBANK : uploadOpenAccountRequestFiles END: ");
    return Response.ok().entity(mapper.writeValueAsString(resp)).build();
}

this is are images of my configurations:

Answer 1

For calling that service, you need to pass requestId like below:

http://localhost:8080/uploadOpenAccountRequestFiles/ requestId-value-here

For sending MultiPart data such as a file, you need to select form-data option in the body section in Postman and select the file by selecting the File dropdown. Also, make sure to set the appropriate headers for the request.

Check the below stackoverflow answer for more details:

Answer 2

The steps of uploading a file through postman along with passing some input data along with the multipart request is very well discussed in below blog along with the screenshot. In this blog, the api code is written in node js. You can go through it once. It may give some information.
