How to upload file to lambda function or API Gateway?

Question

I\'m try to upload file from iOS to AWS API Gateway and passthrough it to Lambda function, How can I implement this scenario?

I can use multipart/form-data

Answer 1

If want to upload file through lambda, one way is to open your AWS API Gateway console.

Go to

"API" -> {YourAPI} -> "Settings"

There you will find "Binary Media Types" section.

Add following media type:

multipart/form-data

Save your changes.

Then Go to "Resources" -> "proxy method"(eg. "ANY") -> "Method Request" -> "HTTP Request Headers" and add following headers "Content-Type", "Accept".

Finally deploy your api.
