ASP.NET Web API File saved as “BodyPart_3ded2bfb-40be-4183-b789-9301f93e90af”

Question

I\'m uploading files using the ASP.NET Web API. I\'ve done this before the RC but for some reason the file is being saved as \"BodyPart_3ded2bfb-40be-4183-b789-9301f93e90af\

Answer 1

Here, this work for me

In API Controller

// We implement MultipartFormDataStreamProvider to override the filename of File which
// will be stored on server, or else the default name will be of the format like Body-
// Part_{GUID}. In the following implementation we simply get the FileName from 
// ContentDisposition Header of the Request Body.
public class CustomMultipartFormDataStreamProvider : MultipartFormDataStreamProvider
{
    public CustomMultipartFormDataStreamProvider(string path) : base(path) { }

    public override string GetLocalFileName(HttpContentHeaders headers)
    {
        return headers.ContentDisposition.FileName.Replace("\"", string.Empty);
    }
}

Then

 string root = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/App_Data");       
 CustomMultipartFormDataStreamProvider provider = new CustomMultipartFormDataStreamProvider(root);

Thanks,
