I am unable to upload a file (an mp4) to my server. I control the server and use an npm library parse the request. Now, when I use Postman and select a test mp4 to upload to my server, I successfully receive it. Yet when using this function from Alamofire, I receive nothing.

Alamofire.upload(fileURL, to: "http://localhost/video").responseJSON { response in debugPrint(response) }

I send back some JSON in the response and successfully receive it in my app. No errors on either side. What am I missing?

    Have you tried using multipartFormData with mimeType? Commented Apr 12, 2018 at 3:55
  • I've not read that thats necessary and see upload(fileURL:) and so I'd expect that to work. I tried multipartFormData but got an ill formed url error. Commented Apr 12, 2018 at 3:58

Use MultiFormData to upload the image

Alamofire.upload( multipartFormData: { multipartFormData in multipartFormData.append(fileUrl, withName: "fileName") }, to: "http://localhost/video").responseJSON { response in debugPrint(response) })
