Finally found a solution, used multipart form instead of raw json:


   public static void upload2()
   {
      System.out.println("ticket=" + ticket);
      
      
       Client clientUpload = ClientBuilder.newBuilder().register(MultiPartFeature.class).build();
       FileDataBodyPart filePart = new FileDataBodyPart("filedata", new File("test2.txt"));
       FormDataMultiPart formDataMultiPart = new FormDataMultiPart();
       
       FormDataMultiPart multipart = 
             (FormDataMultiPart)formDataMultiPart.field("siteid", "mysite")
                                                      .field("containerid", "documentLibrary")
                                                      .field("uploaddirectory", "java")
                                                      .bodyPart(filePart);

       WebTarget target = clientUpload.target(getBaseURI(uriUpload)).queryParam("alf_ticket", ticket);
       Response response = target.request().post(Entity.entity(multipart, multipart.getMediaType()));
        
       System.out.println("response=" + response);
       try {
      formDataMultiPart.close();
           multipart.close();
       } catch (IOException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
       }
   }

I'm trying to set the title and description fields for the uploaded file. I thought it would be as easy as this, but it's not working:


FormDataMultiPart multipart = (FormDataMultiPart) formDataMultiPart
            .field("siteid", site).field("containerid", "documentLibrary")
            .field("title", "THIS DOESNT WORK").field("description", "NEITHER DOES THIS")
            .field("uploaddirectory", uploadFolder).bodyPart(filePart);

Any ideas?
