How to convert base64 string to binary-file and store on sftp

Hey to all you Makers,

So I ask my self how to convert base64 string to binary-file and store on sftp.

I tried it like so. But for some reason the image finally is broken so you can not open.
What ist the problem?

Thanks for you support

Hi @cahore,

You would need to add a secondary parameter to the function.

toBinary(<base64 data>; base64)

So you mean like this?

But its still not working but it feels much closer :slight_smile:

Hi. Be sure your final base64 starts with data:image/png;base64,…

If you need additional support, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

@cahore No you have to add it to the toBinary() function like I explained:

What do you mean with this? This is not related right now.

I have a similar issue with an image data:image/png;base64,

I follow base64 function as explained but still, the image in dropbox is broken. Any other steps to follow?

Hi @Will2 ,
That doesn’t look the correct value to use. A signature is most of the time only a value to identify the file is correct. You need to search for the actual data value.

I’ve the same issue. I’m trying to convert a existing base64 "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAA... onto image.

I did the same thing above.

HTTP > Parse > Variable ({{toBinary(10.value; “base64”)}}) > Google Drive

The image come broken.

Try removing the data:image/png;base64 from the String. It should work after that.
