hello everyone,
1. I have a list of files (a folder contains multiple files: file_01, file_02, file_03)
2. I want to send files in order

So can we write script that allows to send APIs automatically instead I have to send APIs three times?

I got unsupported media type. I am supposed to send a JSON code along with attachments so I followed this. Does it mean that the server endpoint doesn't take the file that I am sending? I am attaching an excel file btw.
