Hi, I am using Java and I am trying to upload .png file in request after converting it to Base64 encoded String as below: File f1 = new File(filepath); byte[] fileContent = FileUtils.readFileToByteArray(f1);String encodedString = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(fileContent); In the request body, I am setting encodedString as value for BinaryData but I am receiving error as shown below. Can someone please help me in resolving this?
