Error uploading asset to contentful (sdk CMA) directly from input in the browser












0














I'm trying to select a file from the browser using an <input type='file'> and the Contentful manangement api.



I tested it with a file already on the web like the example here:
Angular & Contentful: Cannot create asset inside a space
and it works perfect, the problem comes when I select a file and try to use it from the generated blob. This what I do:






fileChangedHandler = (e) => {
const file = e.target.files[0];
if (file) {
this.setState({
file: {
selectedFile: file,
fileUrl: URL.createObjectURL(file),
},
});
}
};





then I use the fileUrl as the upload asset here:






environment.createAsset({
fields: {
title: {
[locale]: selectedFile.name,
},
file: {
[locale]: {
contentType: selectedFile.type,
fileName: selectedFile.name,
upload: fileUrl,
},
},
},
})





But I get an error saying that the value doesn't match the regex validations as it starts with 'blob' instead a proper url
error 1



I also tried using the selectedFile in the upload property but again it throws another error:
error 2



Any ideas?
Thanks!
