I am at learning phase of web api and I want to upload image to server using web api in mvc dot net. I have tried much but not getting solution.

In controller I have done this.

string img = username + "_" + labTestId + fb; var element2 = image; MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(Convert.FromBase64String(element2)); byte[] imagesbytes = ms.ToArray(); string folder_name = "lab-orders"; folder_name = folder_name.ToLower(); string SaveLocation = ServerConfig.BlobPath + folder_name + "/" + fb+imagesbytes; BlobUploader.UploadTo(folder_name,img, ms); // var filePath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/Userimage/" + postedFile.FileName + extension); var filePath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(SaveLocation + postedFile.FileName + extension); postedFile.SaveAs(filePath);

How can I upload image to server using web api?
