Description

Hi! I try to change user avatar from powershell script, but get error 400 invalid request and error on RC log “must NOT have additional properties [invalid-params]”. I think my request body wrong, but i dont now where, thx.

I tried this

$Uri = "http://address/api/v1/users.setAvatar"

$headers = @{
    "X-Auth-Token" = "mytoken"
    "X-User-Id" = "myid"
    "Content-type" = "application/json"
}

$formData = @{
    image = "path to image"
    username = "username"
} | ConvertTo-Json

Write-Output $formData

$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Headers $headers -Uri $Uri -Method POST -Body $formData -ContentType 'application/json'
$response | ConvertTo-Json
Write-Output $response

Or this

$rocketchatUrl = "addres"
$username = "username"
$avatarPath = "path to pic"

$avatarBytes = [System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes($avatarPath)
$base64EncodedAvatar = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($avatarBytes)

$headers = @{
    "X-User-Id" = "my id"
    "X-Auth-Token" = "my token"
}

$jsonData = @{
    "image" = "data:image/png;base64,$base64EncodedAvatar"
    "username" = $username
} | ConvertTo-Json

Write-Output $jsonData

$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "$rocketchatUrl/api/v1/users.setAvatar" -Method Post -Headers $headers -Body $jsonData -ContentType "application/json"
$response  | ConvertTo-Json
