Sending a zip file from one Composable instance to another

[eschenfeldt]

If I want to send a zip file from one Composable instance to another what modules should I use? The calling instance is able to web activate a flow on the receiving instance without a problem, but I'm having difficulty identifying which modules to use and how to deal with the arguments on either side.

I've tried using the WebClient File Sender Robust either directly passing my file as the Input or using the HTML Multipart Form Encoder, but the Web Receive on the other side doesn't seem to be recognizing the zip as a file (rather than a giant string) in either case.

The HTML Multipart Form Encoder in conjunction with a WebClient File Sender Robust should be what you're looking for; as long as you're passing a FileReference into the Encoder (as the Value of a KeyValuePair), the Encoder should create a multipart/form-data request that the target server will decode back into a FileReference.

The send side would look something like this:

And the receive side like this:
