Upload media via API

Shopware 6 (English)
1

Hi,

i try to upload an image via api call.

  1. Create a media object in shopware in the right mediafolder

    POST /api/v3/media
    payload:{„mediaFolderId“:„00d649bbe5a9477fa975ad33273246ed“,„id“:„ec90cae2cc84c37b6b7a0cb9fe5c4548“}

works fine!

  1. Upload the new image (testfile.png) via url

    POST /api/v3/_action/media/ec90cae2cc84c37b6b7a0cb9fe5c4548/upload?extension=png&fileName=testfile

    payload: {„url“:„http://…/testfile.png“}

a file is created, but the content of the file is not the png image but the payload string.

any Ideas?

Where is your image file located? Upload with url is not possible from a remote host, as far as I know. It has to be on the same server.

The image is located on an other public internet Server, uploading the same image in the shopware backend works fine.

just tested: image url on the same server also doesn’t work

I‘m sending not the url but the data of the image. First create the media object as you did and then uploading data. There are a few threads about this here in the german forum.
