Conversion of application/pdf or text/html to mulitpart/form-data

  • 1.  Conversion of application/pdf or text/html to mulitpart/form-data

    Posted Fri February 07, 2020 01:39 PM
    We have scenario where we are receiving application/pdf or text/html from the consumer and we need to send the data as mulitpart/form-data to backend as backend only accepts data as mulitpart/form-data.

    There is no builtin support for your use case.
    Since application/pdf is binary, best create a GatewayScript that does read the PDF, and then generate multipart/form-data per spec yourself.

    Thank you Harman,

    I encoded the application.pdf data to base 64, wrapped up the base64 value in an xml and set the MIME headers using xslt and decoded the data, forwarded it to backend to get it working. Now backend is acknoledging the document and were able to process the document as mulipart/form-data.

    Thanks, 
    Omkar.
