![How to Send Multipart/Form-Data Request Using Postman [Closed]](https://docuprint.cloud68.co/uploads/how-to-send-multipart-form-data-request_1200.jpg)
I am currently using the Chrome Addon Postman - REST Client to easily create POST / GET request.
Now I want to debug an upload script and I am looking for a way to make requests encoded as "multipart/form-data" so that I can send also a file.

UPDATE: I have created a video on sending multipart/form-data requests to explain this better.
Actually, Postman can do this.
Full example:
You DON'T need to add any headers, Postman will do this for you automatically.

Be careful with explicit Content-Type header. Better - do not set it's value, the Postman is smart enough to fill this header for you. BUT, if you want to set the Content-Type: multipart/form-data - do not forget about boundary field.
The usual error is one tries to put Content-Type: {multipart/form-data} into the header of the post request. That will fail, it is best to let Postman do it for you. For example:
