FILE Upload: TypeError: Cannot read property 'size' of undefined

[Karuna Lingham <ka...@gmail.com>]

I am trying to send an image/video file to my API endpoint by attaching the
file under 'Files Upload' section of the HTTP Request and always get this
error: "TypeError: Cannot read property 'size' of undefined" For some
reason, the file does not get recognised on jmeter, tried on Postman and it
works fine. I have tried various things, but did not work. Can someone help
please? Thanks!! NOTE: this is a mobile application, so I tried the
HTTPRecorder already, but no luck there too. MIME Type: video/mp4
Content-Type: multipart/form-data

Thanks! I'll try recording the Postman request.

1. I tried copying the file to JMeter's bin folder, no luck.
2. Already ticked the box - "Use multipart/form-data"
3. I'm using the same parameter name as in the Postman request.

Here is a screenshot of the request data and configuration in JMeter, if it
helps.

Thank you again, for your response..

It is impossible to come up with the comprehensive response without seeing
your request configuration, a short checklist:1. Make sure to copy the file
to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation or to provide the full path to
the file2. Tick "Use multipart/form-data" box in the  HTTP Request
<https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP_Request>  
sampler 3. Make sure to use correct "Parameter Name" under the "Files
Upload" tab, it should be exactly the same as *name* parameter of the  file
input <https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_input_type_file.asp>  In general
given you can successfully execute the request using Postman you could
record the request using JMeter, just  configure Postman to use JMeter as
the proxy
<https://support.getpostman.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008893713-How-do-I-configure-Postman-to-work-through-a-proxy-> 
, start JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder,  copy the file you will be
uploading to JMeter's "bin" folder
<https://www.blazemeter.com/blog/recording-file-uploads-jmeter/>   and
execute the request in Postman. JMeter will capture the request and store it
under the  Recording Controller
