Hi

I was following this document https://support.hcl-software.com/csm?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0089290 to upload a file to a WCM File Component.

I am able to upload a file, but the file name is not coming proper. Everytime I get file name as some random alpha numeric that is followed by .javascript extension if I upload file as binary option, or get .form-data extension if I upload file through form-data option from postman. I want proper file name inside WCM File Component when uploading file through WCM API, is there an header or other field we must pass on so that correct file name is picked up?

Do we have proper documentation which gives step by step instruction to follow?

The format should be like the following:

"binaryresource" :
   {
      "type" : "text/javascript",
      "fileName" : "testFile.js",
      "value" : "VGhpcyBpcyBub3QgZ3JlYXQgdGVzdCBkYXRhLi4uLg=="
   }

Hi Thomas

This was also not working as expected. I have raised a case with number CS0881433 and uploaded video there.
