I have a case Where I need to accept files as multipart/form-data. Which I will link with provided EntityId. Now my Issue is Every endpoint exposed through normal way has some restriction like it doesn't accept multipart/form-data. How can I achieve this.
Salesforce already exposes a standard endpoint for accepting multipart/formdata
Assuming the case already exists in your salesforce org (id= 5009O00000DKLC5QAP)

Sample multipart request below:
URL = /services/data/v58.0/composite/sobjects
HEADERS = Content-Type:multipart/form-data; boundary="boundary_string"
BODY =
--boundary_string
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="collection"
Content-Type: application/json
{
"allOrNone" : false,
"records" :
[
{
"attributes" :
{
"type" : "ContentVersion",
"binaryPartName": "binaryPart1",
"binaryPartNameAlias": "VersionData"
},
"PathOnClient": "penta_multipart_File_1.png", //name+extension of the file
"FirstPublishLocationId": "5009O00000DKLC5QAP",
"Title": " penta_multipart_File_1.png"
},
{
"attributes" :
{
"type" : "ContentVersion",
"binaryPartName": "binaryPart2",
"binaryPartNameAlias": "VersionData"
},
"PathOnClient": "penta_multipart_File_2.png",
"FirstPublishLocationId": "5009O00000DKLC5QAP", /
"Title": "penta_multipart_File_2.png"
},
{
"attributes" :
{
"type" : "ContentVersion",
"binaryPartName": "binaryPart3",
"binaryPartNameAlias": "VersionData"
},
"PathOnClient": " penta_multipart_File_3.png",
"FirstPublishLocationId": "5009O00000DKLC5QAP",
"Title": " penta_multipart_File_3.png"
}
]
