Hello,
I just looked at the doc, it seem to be explain : http://docs.sylius.org/en/latest/api/products.html

Note

The images (files) should be passed in an array as an attribute of request. See how it is done in Sylius here. https://github.com/Sylius/Sylius/blob/master/tests/Controller/ProductApiTest.php

Ok @bruno-ds , I understand how to push image to sylius with API with they're examples https://github.com/Sylius/Sylius/blob/master/tests/Controller/ProductApiTest.php#L483

But I do not understand how to push image without using UploadedFile which is a symfony component... so there is a way to push image with tranditionnal php libs ? or equivalent ?

[bruno-ds]

Probably, it's role is just to serialize the file, you should look at the raw request sent (there should be a method like $this->client->getRequest()).
But since Sylius rely on Symfony, using UploadedFile seems the easiest way...

Am I correct to assume that currently it's not possible to upload images into Sylius purely using its REST API, without creating any Symfony plugins?

My usecase is that I'm trying to upload images into Sylius from my GO app, and I don't want to create any plugins for it.

Does it still not possible in 2020? It's really hard to upload photos via API in some cases impossible

@kaankilic There's an workaround: https://github.com/Sylius/Sylius/issues/10532
