I stored image in pub/media/catalog/product. How to add that images into media gallery entries.

I have tried like http://myhost/rest/V1/products

"media_gallery_entries"=> array(

    array(

        "media_type"=> "image",

        "label"=> "Product Image",

        "position"=> 1,

        "disabled"=> false,

        "types"=> array(

            "image",

            "small_image",

            "thumbnail"

        ),

        "file"=> "/1/0/10.jpg"

    )

),

but it always complain about "message":"The image content is not valid."

base64_encode is the only way to add image into rest api?

if yes I tried with

"media_gallery_entries"=> array(

    array(

        "media_type"=> "image",

        "label"=> "Product Image",

        "position"=> 1,

        "disabled"=> false,

        "types"=> array(

            "image",

            "small_image",

            "thumbnail"

        ),

        "content"=> array(

            "base64_encoded_data"=> $data->getMainImage(),

            "type"=> "image/jpeg",

            "name"=> "test.jpg"

        ),

    )

),

It throws exception "message":"The image MIME type is not valid or not supported."

I found supported mime type in /vendor/magento/framework/Api/ImageContentValidator.php

private $defaultMimeTypes = [

    'image/jpg',

    'image/jpeg',

    'image/gif',

    'image/png',

];

It support image/jpeg, but I don't know why it throws exception.

Can anyone enlighten me to how to add media galleries entries?

Try with your second example, but instead of media_type, use mediaType tag.

"media_gallery_entries"=> array(

    array(

        "media_type"=> "image",

        "label"=> "Product Image",

        "position"=> 1,

        "disabled"=> false,

        "types"=> array(

            "image",

            "small_image",

            "thumbnail"

        ),

        "content"=> array(

            "base64_encoded_data"=> $data->getMainImage(),

            "type"=> "image/jpeg",

            "name"=> "test.jpg"

        ),

    )

),

Also, you'll probably have to use base64_encode($data->getMainImage()) instead of $data->getMainImage() only.

Notice

1. We should use image_type_to_mime_type function to get the MIME type, not use the file extension, because extension sometime is wrong.




2. 'data:image/'.$type.';base64,' beginning in the base64 string doesn't need in Magento2, we just need base64_encode($imageData);

Work Example: post product image from Magento 1.9 to Magento 2.2

<?php

$imagePath = $product->getImage();

$imageFullPath = Mage::getBaseDir('media').'/catalog/product'.$imagePath;

$imageName = basename($imagePath);

$imageType = exif_imagetype($imageFullPath);

$mimeType = image_type_to_mime_type($imageType);

$imageData = file_get_contents($imageFullPath);

$base64EncodedData = base64_encode($imageData);



$json =

    '{

      "product": {

        ...

        "media_gallery_entries": [{

            "media_type": "image",

            "label": "'.$imageName.'",

            "position": 0,

            "disabled": false,

            "types": [

                "image",

                "small_image",

                "thumbnail"

            ],

            "file": "'.$imagePath.'",

            "content": {

                "base64_encoded_data": "'.$base64EncodedData.'",

                "type": "'.$mimeType.'",

                "name": "'.$imageName.'"

            }

        }],

        ...

      }

    }'
