Save MultipartFileData file to disk

Question

I have the bellow code which I have seen in other threads here, but nowhere does it actually show how to save a MultipartFileData file to disk once you have it.

Answer 1

Here is the sample for saving file in server. Hope this will help you.

public class TestController : ApiController
{
    const string StoragePath = @"T:\WebApiTest";
    public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Post()
    {
        if (Request.Content.IsMimeMultipartContent())
        {
            var streamProvider = new MultipartFormDataStreamProvider(Path.Combine(StoragePath, "Upload"));
            await Request.Content.ReadAsMultipartAsync(streamProvider);
            foreach (MultipartFileData fileData in streamProvider.FileData)
            {
                if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(fileData.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName))
                {
                    return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.NotAcceptable, "This request is not properly formatted");
                }
                string fileName = fileData.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName;
                if (fileName.StartsWith("\"") && fileName.EndsWith("\""))
                {
                    fileName = fileName.Trim('"');
                }
                if (fileName.Contains(@"/") || fileName.Contains(@"\"))
                {
                    fileName = Path.GetFileName(fileName);
                }
                File.Move(fileData.LocalFileName, Path.Combine(StoragePath, fileName));
            }
        }
        return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK);
    }
    else
    {
        return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.NotAcceptable, "This request is not properly formatted");
    }
}
