FileApiClient.UploadFileContents(...) doesn't work under Linux

[ojacobse]

When running the code under .net 6 (not tested other versions) the code fails when running under Linux.

Note: For others in the same situation I solved it by overriding the FileApiClient.UploadFileContents(...) But use the HttpClientwith HttpRequestMessageand MultipartFormDataContent.

I'm having the same issue on mac. can you please share the code that you used that worked for you?

Well... for the next generations, here is is

private async Task UploadFile(string fileUri, string fileContent, string fileType, string projectId, string token)
{
    using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient())
    {
        client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://api.smartling.com");
        client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Authorization", $"Bearer {token}");

        // Prepare form data
        var formData = new MultipartFormDataContent();
        formData.Add(new StringContent(fileType), "fileType");
        formData.Add(new StringContent(fileUri), "fileUri");
        formData.Add(new ByteArrayContent(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(fileContent)), "file", fileUri);

        // Make the API call
        HttpResponseMessage response = await client.PostAsync($"/files-api/v2/projects/{projectId}/file", formData);

        // Check the response
        if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"Failed to upload file. Status code: {response.StatusCode}");
            string errorMessage = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
            Console.WriteLine($"Error message: {errorMessage}");
        }
    }
}
