    Hi Suzie

     

    I am making an API call to https://communitydev.alteryx.com/api/2.0/messages

    using Dell Boomi Integration Platform.

    Passing below:{
    "api.request": {
    "value": "{ data: { type: attachment, field: attachment1 } }",
    "type": "data"
    },
    "attachment1": {
    "value": "test123.png",
    "Content-Type": "application/octet-stream",
    "Content-Transfer-Encoding": "binary",
    "type": "key"
    }
    }

    Try downloading the raw attachment file and looking at its contents. The file data could be getting corrupted before reaching the server.  Note that in the request contents you pasted, there is no actual image data.

    You could also try to adjust the integration so that it specifically sends the file with an image/png content-type instead of application/octet-stream.
