Hi,

Here's one example:

// Given
final Message message = new Message();
message.setMessage("Hello World");

// When
given().
        multiPart("controlName", message, "application/json").
when().
        post("/multipart").
then().
        statusCode(200);

Regards,

/Johan

Hello Johan,

So many thanks for your quick reply.But i want to elaborate little bit more.
I have below palyload for mixed data::
First chunk of payload:
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="reference-data"; filename="blob"
Content-Type: application/json

{"integration":{"serviceData":{"referenceData":{"name":"ddd","description":"ddd","columnDelimiter":",","releaseCharacter":"\"","encodingType":"IBM437"}}}}

Second chunk of payload:

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="reference-data-file"; filename="RoleBasedAccessFeaturePlan.csv"
Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel

So  how to set content type to above payload?

If possible please add an example with code.

Regards,
Ramakant

Hi, 

You should be able to do something like this:

// Given
final Message message = new Message();
message.setMessage("Hello World");

// When

given().
        multiPart(new MultiPartSpecBuilder(greeting)
                       .fileName("RoleBasedAccessFeaturePlan.csv")
                       .controlName("reference-data-file")
                       .mimeType("application/vnd.ms-excel").build()).
when().
        post("/multipart").
then().
        statusCode(200);

but REST Assured doesn't know how to serialize "application/vnd.ms-excel" so it won't work in your case. If you change it to "application/json" it works. It looks like it's not possible to configure how these content-types should be serialized for multiparts. I've added an issue for it here.
