If the url is for upload a file, what parameters should I give for the request. If possible, please give me an example. Thank you.

Hi Zhong Liu,

This depends to your service settings that you are trying to connect, you should check this in their documentation.

If you needed a custom setting for your service, then the Generic service is the way for you, more information you can find here:

Hi IIIya,
I defined a rest service, and add a datasource on the page like this:

then I put a piece of js code on 'click' event of a button like this:

when I test the app by launch and click the button, the rest service can be called and run successfully, the request parameter can be passed to the rest service.

However, when I define a rest service which is used to upload an image file, the server need a multipart-form data like this:

I don't know how to pass this kind of data to service when calling service_name.execute(); could you please give me your suggestion, thank you!
