Postman form-data sending complex object with file
1
How to send (or maybe it's not possible?) complex object with file in Postman
My object:
class Client {
private String clientName;
private Platform platform;
}
class Platform {
private String android;
private String ios;
}
My Controller class:
@PostMapping(value = "/evaluate", produces = "application/json")
public ResponseEntity<ServerResponse> sendEvaluateForm(Client client,
@RequestParam(value = "files", required = false) MultipartFile files)
{
return new ResponseEntity<>(HttpStatus.OK);
}
That's how I am sending request in postman:
It work's when I pass "clientName" which is basic field in Client.
But I have no idea, how to pass Platform object.
I tried to pass in key: platform
and in value: {"android" : "asd", "ios" : "xxx"}
But i only got BadRequest(400)
java spring file-upload postman

I don't think it's possible to send both a JSON payload AND form data at the same time. You could embed the JSON as part of the form, but I think you'll need to do the unmarshalling manually in that case. I'm not entirely sure though, so perhaps someone with a bit more Spring Web experience could correct me (I generally stick to JAX-RS)

Thank you for your response. I think you may be right. I tried to do this in in few different ways, but none of this worked (my friend is sending me this form+file in JS). I could get this form in 1 object only with basic values, but it's pretty big (about 100fields) that's why I wanted to have it in seperate objects. But if I don't find the way how to send JSON+file I guess I will have to stick with that.

You can try send your client data as a plain string and parse it on the controller side.
@PostMapping(value = "/evaluate", produces = "application/json")
public ResponseEntity<?> sendEvaluateForm(@RequestParam ("client") String client,
@RequestParam(value = "files", required = false) MultipartFile files) throws IOException {
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
Client clientobject = mapper.readValue(client, Client.class);
return ResponseEntity.ok().build();
}
And the postman request:
And your POJO classes:
class Client {
private String clientName;
private Platform platform;
public String getClientName() {
return clientName;
}
public void setClientName(String clientName) {
this.clientName = clientName;
}
public Platform getPlatform() {
return platform;
}
public void setPlatform(Platform platform) {
this.platform = platform;
}
}
class Platform {
private String android;
private String ios;
public String getAndroid() {
return android;
}
public void setAndroid(String android) {
this.android = android;
}
public String getIos() {
return ios;
}
public void setIos(String ios) {
this.ios = ios;
}
}

You can try send your client data as a plain string and parse it on the controller side.
@PostMapping(value = "/evaluate", produces = "application/json")
public ResponseEntity<?> sendEvaluateForm(@RequestParam ("client") String client,
@RequestParam(value = "files", required = false) MultipartFile files) throws IOException {
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
Client clientobject = mapper.readValue(client, Client.class);
return ResponseEntity.ok().build();
}
And the postman request:
And your POJO classes:
class Client {
private String clientName;
private Platform platform;
public String getClientName() {
return clientName;
}
public void setClientName(String clientName) {
this.clientName = clientName;
}
public Platform getPlatform() {
return platform;
}
public void setPlatform(Platform platform) {
this.platform = platform;
}
}
class Platform {
private String android;
private String ios;
public String getAndroid() {
return android;
}
public void setAndroid(String android) {
this.android = android;
}
public String getIos() {
return ios;
}
public void setIos(String ios) {
this.ios = ios;
}
}

I could get this form in 1 object only with basic values, but it's pretty big (about 100fields) that's why I wanted to have it in seperate objects.
