@foyangyu curl -H "Authorization: Bearer fba206bd-8f0d-491e-83a9-b08383a4c575" --data "title='NEW topic TITLE'&content='CONTENT MORE THAN 8'&cid=4" http://localhost:4567/api/v1/topics

Hi all,

Confirmed working, here's the curl call I used:

$ cd /directory/with/file/to/upload
$ curl -L https://localhost/forum/api/v2/util/upload?_uid=1 -H "Authorization: Bearer e3704a27-9368-4a3c-b743-0dbc5da08e39" -F "files[][email protected]"

Keep in mind my local dev uses a subfolder, that's why I am calling localhost/forum. You might call your own hostname, url, or localhost:4567/api...

Here is the return payload:

[
    {
        "url": "/forum/assets/uploads/files/1524840237214-filename.jpg",
        "path": "/home/julian/Projects/nodebb/forum/public/uploads/files/1524840237214-filename.jpg",
        "name": "filename.jpg"
    }
]

thanks, I try to use the
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer {YOUR_TOKEN}" --data "title={TITLE}&content={CONTENT}&cid={CID}" http://localhost:4567/api/v1/topics
to send posts, It's all right.
Is there any samply about the "JSON Web Token " to send posts ?
very thanks .

For anyone using NodeBB to upload a screenshot from node.js

		const buffer = await createImage({
			path: `screenshot/annotation:${ annotationID }`
			, encoding: 'binary'
		})

		const result = await rp({
			url: `${ endpoint }/util/upload?_uid=${ _uid }`,
			method: 'POST',
			json: true,
			headers: {
				Authorization
				, 'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
			},
			formData: {
				'files[]': {
					value: buffer,
					options: {
						filename: `annotaion-${ annotationID }.jpg`,
						contentType: 'image/jpg'
					}
				}
			},
		})
