How to upload multipart form data in serverless

0
votes

I am uploading files from front end (Angular) using multipart/form-data to S3 via AWS Lambda. I have installed the serverless-apigw-binary plugin and in my serverless.yml have included the configuration as mentioned in this plugin's documentation. On my API gateway I can see that the plugin adds the binary media types values mentioned in the serverless.yml file

However when I view the file on S3 it is corrupted. Does not matter what type of file I upload (image, doc, pdf) I cannot open it on download. This issue is also present when I make a direct POST request to my lambda function from Postman.

Am I missing any step? What is the correct way to accept binary files in Lambda?

You’ll need to configure binary media types in AWS for API Gateway to be able to handle multipart/form and that kind of stuff.

Try this.

Just change aws-serverless-express to aws-serverless-express-binary. 

$ yarn add aws-serverless-express-binary

https://www.npmjs.com/package/aws-serverless-express-binary
