ASP.NET Core WEB API - Receive multiple files in post request

Time:02-24

This is my controller action:

// POST: api/Customers/Create
[HttpPost(), Route("Create")]
public async Task<ActionResult> CreateAsync([FromForm] CustomerModel model)

And it receives a CustomerModel:

public Guid? Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Address { get; set; }
public string PhoneNumber { get; set; }
public string Email { get; set; }
public bool? IsActive { get; set; }
public  List<CustomerLicenseModel> LicenseFiles { get; set; }

My CustomerModel has a custom class that is a list of files of type CustomerLicenseModel

public  List<CustomerLicenseModel> LicenseFiles { get; set; }

And this is the CustomerLicenseModel:

public class CustomerLicenseModel
{
    public LicenseFileType LicenseFileType { get; set; }
    public IFormFile LicenseFile { get; set; }
}

LicenseFileType can be Front or Back.

public enum LicenseFileType
{
    Front,
    Back
}

How can I send this via a http request?

If I have a List<IFormFile> inside my CustomerModel, I can send multiple files via postman or swagger for an example, but I need to know what the LicenseFileType is.

Can somebody help?

CodePudding user response:

Swagger does not support the transmission of this format by default, So I suggest you use postman to send requset.
