What is the better way to upload a file for a REST client? From the WCF Web API Documentation [WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "thumbnail", Method = "POST")] public HttpResponseMessage UploadFile(HttpRequestMessage request) { From multiple forum posts: WCF REST File upload with additional parameters [WebGet(UriTemplate="", Method ="POST"] public string UploadFile(Stream fileContents) I understand, that the first method allows to directly post a file from a normal HTML form. The 2nd approach seems more common on all forum posts I find. What would you recommend and why? The REST api should be accessible from all kind of languages and platforms. For the HttpRequestMessage approach, how would I do an upload a file preferable with the WCF HttpClient? With the FormUrlEncodedMediaTypeFormatter)
