Testing REST API using Robot Framework. Can't upload a CSV File and data via POST request
Jyoti Kaloya
I am very new to testing / developing. I am currently testing a REST API. In Postman I send a POST request by specifying parameters and uploading a .csv file using form-data in the body. My request always succeeds. However, when I try to translate this into Robot Framework (using the Requests Library), I get a 400 Error.
I am posting my code below.
I have been trying to resolve this issue for a while now. Any help in the right direction would be much appreciated!
Create Session Alias http://{{Host}}{{Port}}
${data}= Create Dictionary inputFileTypeId=1 dataType=csv
Set to Dictionary ${data}
${file_data} Get Binary File ${CURDIR}${/}File1.csv
${files} Create Dictionary file ${file_data}
Log ${files}
Log ${data}
${resp} RequestsLibrary.Post Request Alias /URI files=${files} data=${data}
Log ${resp}
Should Be Equal As Strings ${resp.status_code} 200
