Hello friends, I would like to know it.  
How to convert and save an image in base64 in my bubble database through a Picture Upload?

Get picture uploader. When button is clicked, schedule API workflow with parameter file type file. In that workflow, create a new Thing. Thing contains field `fileBase64` of type `text`.

`fileBase64 = file's value:encoded in base64`.

This should work no?

All the details are in the [docs](https://manual.bubble.io/core-resources/data/operations-and-comparisons).

### 

**:encoded in base64**

This fetches the contents of the file and encodes it using base64, which is a common standard used for passing file data. Use this for uploading files to certain APIs that require data in base64 form. Note: At the moment, this operator only works in server-side workflows. Running it in the web browser returns nothing.
