Question

Can I send excel file and raw json in request body in single request to api from postman?

Answer 1

You can use FormData

const exampleData = {
 name: 'test'
};
const bodyFormData= new FormData();
bodyFormData.append('file', <FILE>)
bodyFormData.append('jsonData', JSON.stringify(exampleData))

axios({
  method: "post",
  URL: <URL>,
  data: bodyFormData,
  headers: { "Content-Type": "multipart/form-data" },
})

• Get this request in a server
• use some middleware
• in the middleware you can split the file and jsonData for the following steps
