The request body is a form-data. The request body has a key, image that expects a file (image file here). This is what I've done so far:

final response = await http.MultipartRequest(
      'POST', Uri.parse(Constant.baseUrl   'api/patients'))
    ..headers.addAll({"Authorization": "Bearer $token"})
    ..fields.addAll({
      "first_name": firstName,
      "last_name": lastName,
      "email": email,
      "date_of_birth": dob,
      "address": address,
      "gender": gender,
      "blood_group": bg,
      "primary_phone": primaryPhone,
      "alt_phone": altPhone
    })
    ..files.add(await http.MultipartFile.fromPath(
      'image',
      image.path,
    ));

I'm attaching the postman request body here for better understanding of my question. The last key is the one I'm facing trouble with.

I think I'm just uploading the image file without the key. That is why, my request works but the image still doesn't get posted. The image file here is a XFile (using the image_picker library in FLutter).

Also I want to achieve this using the http library. I know it is possible through dio. But just for this request, I don't want to import another library.

      request.files.add(multipartFile);
      final httpClient = http.Client();
      final response = await httpClient.send(request);
      if (response.statusCode != 200) {
        throw Exception('HTTP ${response.statusCode}');
      }

      final body = await response.stream.transform(utf8.decoder).join();

      print(body);
    }
  }

// I am posting the method that i used ..havenot customized as your usecase. It performs the imageupload from the filePicker
