Upload file in File Attachment field using add record fail

Hi Matthew

Thanks for the revert. My issue is not that ... as I have tested it by removing mandatory setting also, but it still doesn't work. The xml content is simply not send to the quickbase. I did simple tests to determinde that.

The issue as per me is that how do i post a http request (since I am running from outside quickbase) for adding a record and uploading a attachment field. 

Can you help me over there ?

My code looks like this :-

var vxml = '<qdbapi><udata>mydata</udata><usertoken>token<\usertoken><field name="Upload" filename="b.pdf">'+buf1+'</field></qdbqpi>';

request({
        url : "https://apollotyres.quickbase.com";,
        path: "/db/bm3uve9ig",
        method: "POST", 
        headers: {
                              "content-type": "text/xml" ,
                              "QUICKBASE-ACTION": "API_AddRecord"
                   }, 
       data:vxml
}, function (err, remoteResponse, remotebody){
if (err) {console.log("error"+remoteResponse+" -- "+err); }
    console.log("error "+remoteResponse +" "+remotebody);
});


Please note buf1 in first line of code where i have declared the XML variable is a base64 encoded content of a PDF file which i am trying to upload.  I am aware how to add a record by passing all parameters data through URL, but unable to do so by passing the XML as data in request.

Hope you can guide me.
