Hi! I’m working on a Netlify Function where we take form data for a job application (including a file upload) and pass the data on to a third-party API for use in their system. I was following along with this handy post (thanks!) — [image] How to Parse Multipart Form Data with Netlify Funct…

It turns out I just needed to amend that last line from that blog post function to busboy.write(Buffer.from(event.body, 'base64')) All working! For future searchers, here is my working netlify function to cloudflare image script import Busboy from 'busboy' import axios from 'axios' import FormData…

Hi, have you solved this issue? I’m seeing the same behaviour in my function.

Hi @oliviernt Could you try using lambda-multipart-parser to see if it makes a difference? It depends on busboy but I personally find it easier to use. It can be used like: const MultipartParser = require('lambda-multipart-parser') exports.handler = async event => { return MultipartParser.parse…

Hi @hrishikesh thank you for your help. I’ve tried it out but the result is the same. Somehow the image stream seems to be corrupt or somehow missing information on arrival…

In that case, I think the best bet is to use an external storage solution like S3 and connect to it using Lambda.

That’s actually what I tried to achieve with Netlify. But I have now changed the logik to only use the Netlify function to get the signed URL from AWS S3 and then directly upload the image to S3 from the client…

I am also facing the same exact issue mentioned in the question. Followed this → How to Parse Multipart Form Data with Netlify Functions . The PDF file comes as empty when using netlify function. Txt files work fine. There is a problem with Netlify Function. The file data automatically gets corrupte…

Hi @Coderr , I am not able to reproduce this issue. Till now, I had not tested it myself but now I did. I uploaded a PDF file via Postman to a serverless function I created and stored the file in Firebase and it worked fine. [image] As you can see, the size is exactly the same. I even got the sa…

Yes, it is working fine when sending from the postman but it is not working when sending the data by code. You can replicate the above linked Multipart Form Data with Netlify function post.

I think in that case the problem would be that since Forms are encoded with Multipart content header, they’re excluded from the base64 encoding of the data. Could you try to perform base64 encoding on the client-side and send that along with the form data and see how it goes?
