titleCreating Multipart Form Data using FormData API
var singleFormData = new FormData()
var metadataBlob = new Blob([JSON.stringify(singleMetadata)],{type:"application/json"})
var contentBlob = new Blob([file],{type:"text/plain"})

singleFormData.append('data', metadataBlob, "metadata")
singleFormData.append('cid_63apple', contentBlob, "contentdata")


Assembling the Request

Now that we have created JSON representations for our content and metadata, we can assemble our multipart HTTP request object. We are going to go over some simple methods to accomplish this and give examples for both browser-based front-end and node.js-based back-end applications.

titleBatch Import Form Data
var multiFormData = new FormData()
          var metadataBlob = new Blob([JSON.stringify(singleMetadata)],{type:"application/json"})
          var contentBlob1 = new Blob([file],{type:"text/plain"})
          var contentBlob2 = new Blob([file2],{type:"text/plain"})


          multiFormData.append('data', metadataBlob, "metadata")
          multiFormData.append('cid_63apple', contentBlob1, "contentdata1")
          multiFormData.append('cid_64apple', contentBlob2, "contentdata2")

Assembling the Request

The multipart request JSON assembly is similar to the singular import. The same function executeRequest(request_object) can be used to send the request.
