[BUG] File_url parameter is optional but it says mandatory field.

[Abhishekranjan56]

When Up Uploading a file from local storage it shows file_url is mandatory.

The Error logged :-
{"_server_messages": "["{\"message\": \"Fields file_name or file_url must be set for File\", \"title\": \"Message\", \"indicator\": \"red\", \"raise_exception\": 1, \"__frappe_exc_id\": \"edfbf39cb7c6aa07fd6c67fcbaadbc703635505b7b87ff1571247742\"}"]", "exc_type": "MandatoryError", "exception": "", "httpStatus": 417, "httpStatusText": undefined, "message": "There was an error while uploading the file."}

@Abhishekranjan56 Which version are you using?
Also, you do not need to pass in the "file_name" either if you are uploading a File object.

I am using "frappe-js-sdk": "^1.4.3", and if I am not passing the file_name it doesnot matter it still shows same error.
{"_server_messages": "["{\"message\": \"Fields file_name or file_url must be set for File\", \"title\": \"Message\", \"indicator\": \"red\", \"raise_exception\": 1, \"__frappe_exc_id\": \"9939bee13b0e544363299709426c69a0af0b249b360be674854890bc\"}"]", "exc_type": "MandatoryError", "exception": "", "httpStatus": 417, "httpStatusText": undefined, "message": "There was an error while uploading the file."}
still shows this error with
const fileArgs = {
isPrivate: true,
folder: "Home",
doctype: "User",
docname: "sub_doc_name",
fieldname: "user_image"
};
with this payload

Can you clear your node modules and .lock file and install all the dependencies again? I am not able to reproduce it on our end. We were facing some issues earlier, but that was fixed in v1.4.3

Sure
Will test and Update.

Done that but same error still persist. Is file_url prop is mandatory??

[Abhishekranjan56]

This is the sample of file object I am sending :-
file:///data/user/0/com.abhishekapp.dev/cache/ImagePicker/f321fbf2-ddec-4bda-bffe-8b57bd1e8289.png
it is the local path of image I want to attach to frappe dashboard using expo image picker.
The Error produced is :-
{"_server_messages": "["{\"message\": \"Fields file_name or file_url must be set for File\", \"title\": \"Message\", \"indicator\": \"red\", \"raise_exception\": 1, \"__frappe_exc_id\": \"77f2ed88f2a9dabbafa15525f96885d980419b34b58234b6cb1a724d\"}"]", "exc_type": "MandatoryError", "exception": "", "httpStatus": 417, "httpStatusText": undefined, "message": "There was an error while uploading the file."}

Oh okay. I didn't know you were using Expo (RN). I haven't tried it on Expo myself, but I know Hussain has an example of a file upload function in doppio_mobile. You won't be able to use the inbuilt function here for raw file uploads but we plan on adding support for that in frappe-JS-SDK and frappe-react-SDK

In my case, I use this code in my React Native and this error resolved

const pictureData = { name: photo.fileName, type: photo.type, uri: photo.uri, };
Make a data like this in your project and pass this data to image file
