Extras Image Attachment fails due to incorrect content type #520
Description
Attempting to attach an image to dcim.device using this sample code:
with open("file_file.jpg", "rb") as file_handle:
image_data = file_handle.read()
base_encoded = base64.b64encode(image_data).decode("utf8")
image_data = dict(
content_type="dcim.device",
object_id=1234,
name="Test image",
image=base_encoded,
image_height=1234,
image_width=1234,
)
try:
nb_api.extras.image_attachments.create(image_data)
except pynetbox.RequestError:
log.exception(f"Failed to attach image")
Catching RequestError
File "blah/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pynetbox/core/query.py", line 287, in _make_call
raise RequestError(req)
pynetbox.core.query.RequestError: The request failed with code 400 Bad Request: {'image': ['The submitted data was not a file. Check the encoding type on the form.']}`
I believe the issue is that the Content-Type should be set to "multipart/form-data" for this to work.
Any suggestions are appreciated, is there a way to change content-type here? Or am I missing something simple?
