I need to upload a file to image server and i choose to go with cloudinary from my node js api. i installed the npm package for cloudinary and used the code as per their api documentation

here is my function which is making a http request call to upload image.

var cloudinary = require('cloudinary').v2;

function uploadProfilePic(req, res, next) {
   let file = (req && req.files.file) ? req.files.file : ''; // File object
   cloudinary.uploader.upload(file, function (error, result) {
      if (!error && result.url) {
         req.body.imageURL = result.url;
         next();
      }
      else {
         req.body.imageURL = '';
         next();

How to upload image using file object on cloudinary?

In order to upload File object to cloudinary, you can use upload_stream method instead of upload. check documentation here.

Corrected your code:

var cloudinary = require('cloudinary').v2;
function uploadProfilePic(req, res, next) {
   let file = (req && req.files.file) ? req.files.file : '';
   cloudinary.uploader.upload_stream({ resource_type: 'raw' }, function (error, result) {
      if (!error && result.url) {
         req.body.imageURL = result.url;
         next();
      }
      else {
         req.body.imageURL = '';
         next();
      }
   }).end(file.data);
}
