Hello, is it possible to send binary data on a connector?

I see there are several data types, should I use Any data type for binary?

Hi Vasileios,

Can you specify in more detail what is expected by this API call? What are the parameters, of which type, etc.

If the API expects data of type ‘multipart’, you unfortunately cannot use the Simplifier REST connector, as multipart is not yet supported. You can read about that in this forum post: https://community.simplifier.io/forums/topic/file-object-not-showing-in-postbody-of-rest-connector/

Also I would like to send a JavaScript File object. Should I use also the Any data type? I see that the called API didn’t receive the file, I am wondering if it is an issue with my request or the server.
