I know how to do it with a workspace and HTTPCaller and with the Rest API but I would like to know if it is possible directly through the external action : "Make an HTTP request" and if so how.
Thanks!

Hi! How do you upload a binary file (not json or text) to FME Server data folder using Automation external action "Make an HTTP request?"

Hi @antoine ,
It is not possible to make a call to the FME Server REST API POST /resources/connections/< resource >/filesys/< path > endpoint using the HTTP Request action in Automations.
This action does not currently allow you to set headers, or to point the upload body to a file. There is an existing idea for headers that I would encourage you to upvote and add your supporting comments. I wasn't able to find any enhancement requests for uploading files to the body so I'd recommend you post a new idea for this as well.
