401 unauthorized when uploading document

achraf13 — Thu, 10 Jun 2021 05:01:05 GMT

I want to upload file using aflresco restApi
this is my function

const formData = new FormData();

formData.append('filedata',file);

const newheaders = new HttpHeaders().set('Authorization', 'Basic '+token);

const uri = `http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-my-/children`;

console.log("this is token before Uploading"+token);

const req = new HttpRequest('POST', uri, formData, {

headers: newheaders,

reportProgress: true,

responseType: 'json'

});

return this.http.request(req);

the token before uploading is valid ; it's tested with postman

Hi,

If you are using a JWT token, you should change "Basic " to "Bearer ". If you can execute this same call through Postman, then I think you should check your HttpRequest and formData objects.

Hope this helps

i used a different identity provider , excluding the alfresco url solved the problem!
