Attach Files to an Issue as base64Content
It is possible to add to API an optional way to send attachments as a base64Content in the body?
e.g
URL: https://example.youtrack.cloud/api/issues/2-6/attachments?fields=id,name
Request body:
{
"name": "file_name.txt",
"base64Content": "data:base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAUAAAAFCAYAAACNbyblAAAAHElEQVQI12P4//8/w38"
}
I can't use -F upload because the HTTP request implementation that I must use doesn't implement it.

Hi Tomasz,
thank you for your question.
At the moment, it's not possible to add attachments via REST API using base64Content. The only way to add attachments currently is described in this tutorial: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/youtrack/devportal/api-usecase-attach-files.html However, please note that the described method also implies using the
-Foption with curl.We also have a feature request to add the option for using base64 for uploading attachments, but it's still in our backlog. Please feel free to vote, comment, and subscribe: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JT-71009/Add-possibility-to-add-attachments-via-REST-API-using-bse64Content
Let us know if you have any questions, we'll be happy to answer.
