Files
The possible formats are listed here, but which of those are allowed may vary from network to network.
Sending and Receiving
Files will usually be a field or a list of fields on a resource. When requesting such a resource, the file will be represented by a link to the file itself:
GET /question/42
{
...
"avatar": "/avatar/a2/f72e155fb8957e0d3a855e27b3f91e.jpg",
...
}
When receiving files, we expect them to be base64
encoded, according to RFC4648, like this:
PUT /question/42
{
"avatar": "WFuIGlzIGRpc3Rpbmd1aXNoZWQsIG5vdCBvbmx5IGJ5IGhpcyByZWFzb24sIGJ..."
}
