Hi All

I am really struggling to get the backend API to work with uploading multiple images. Please help! (I am hoping I am missing something really obvious)

If I upload a single images as part of the backend wf, it works well, but I cannot upload multiple images. Additionally, if I try upload image URLs (copied from existing elements) they “appear” as thumbnails in my DB, but they dont render in the app.

I get a successful message when uploading base64 directly if sending a single image only. My goal is to send multiple base64 encoded images as part of the same API.

Multiple images error:

Second option is to use the /fileupload API and upload each image, one at a time and then pull the URLs and add them as a list. But I cannot get the URLs to work either.

There are many wasy.

Using URL, Make sure when you upload a URL it start with //link_of_img make sure you use https: before that link when rendering.

So, it will be https://link_of_img .

but you can also upload multiple imgaes using a list on a backend workflow. just have a parameter as file.

if i am missing some thing , i am sorry. but you can always ping me, and we get on video and solve it.

Really want to help. :wink:

Thanks @Baloshi69

If I set the parameter to “file” I can send the images from the API in postman, but they don’t get uploaded in bubble. And it returns “null” for images

Thanks for reaching out @Baloshi69 - sadly we weren’t able to resolve the issue.

If anyone else can help, please! Seems the best solution I have so far is, which is not great,

Step 1: Upload one image (as Base64) at a time using https://xxxxxx/version-test/fileupload API (returns the URL)
Step 2: Grab each of the URLs and then add them as a list to the create API.

But this seems like a very inefficient workflow. will require “# images + 1” API calls.
