Hi everyone. I have been scratching my head for a while now, and looking at API docs seems to be impossible, however I have High hopes to make this happen.

I am using using filemaker to build API requests, I am already able to do a few transactions adding and retrieving records.

But when it comes to attachments I am hopeless.

I have lets say test.zip archive locally, I need to upload it via api and at some point download it back via API.

from my application (client) I am able to build simmilar transaction to dropbox:

–header Content-Type: application/octet-stream

–data-binary @$file"


ANYONE please help! and Thank you in advance
