[Django]-Django Rest Framework – Send multipart/form-data with file and other data to API

4👍

Solved it by reading the docs more closely, if no content type is passed to the post method it automatically sets multipart/form-data, which my view accepted.

Changes:

invoice = {
    "invoicefile":(open(full_filename, "rb")),
    "debtor":"5560360793",
    "amount":"55000",
    "serial":"1234567890",
    "dateout":"20180728",
    "expiration":"20180808",
}
response = self.client.post(reverse("invoiceupload"), invoice)
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 201)
