How to send multipart/form-data request using Postman

multipartform-data

Solution

UPDATE: I have created a video on sending multipart/form-data requests to explain this better.

Actually, Postman can do this.

Full example:

You DON'T need to add any headers, Postman will do this for you automatically.

Make sure you check the comment from @maxkoryukov

Be careful with explicit Content-Type header. Better - do not set it's value, the Postman is smart enough to fill this header for you. BUT, if you want to set the Content-Type: multipart/form-data - do not forget about boundary field.

Problem

I am currently using the Chrome Addon Postman - REST Client to easily create POST / GET request. Now I want to debug an upload script and I am looking for a way to make requests encoded as "multipart/form-data" so that I can send also a file.
