Use case

The Base64 Media Retriever transformer may be used to transform binary files into base 64 encoded data. Often, APIs will be able to consume this type of data and translate it into files.

Important note: This transformer has been deprecated, therefore, it’s not possible to use it anymore in Alumio.
However, to get the same results as you did with the Base64 Media Retriever transformer, you can still use Alumio’s transformers.

Use the following path:

  1. Add a “Merger Transformer”
  2. Add an “HTTP Transformer” in the “Data transformer” field
    2.1. Configure the URL, request method, authentications, etc.
    2.2. Select the “Binary” response decoder
  3. Add the following in the “Template” field of the merger transformer: “{“data”: “&{@}”}”
