I am using FastAPI to upload a file according to the official documentation, as shown below: @app.post("/create_file") async def create_file(file: UploadFile = File(...)): file2store = await file.read() # some code to store the BytesIO(file2store) to the other database When I send a request using Python requests library, as shown below: f = open(".../file.txt", 'rb') files = {"file": (f.name, f, "multipart/form-data")} requests.post(url="SERVER_URL/create_file", files=files) the file2store variable is always empty. Sometimes (rarely seen), it can get the file bytes, but almost all the time it is empty, so I can't restore the file on the other database. I also tried the bytes rather than UploadFile, but I get the same results. Is there something wrong with my code, or is the way I use FastAPI to upload a file wrong? Continue reading...
