Python Requests, Multipart Without Files

Is it possible to send a multipart/form-data with python requests without sending a file? My requests header should look like this: --3eeaadbfda0441b8be821bbed2962e4d Content-Dispo

Solution 1:

Yes, you could, just pass dictionary with tuples as values to post method. When you specify files parameter to this method requests add multipart/form-data header. But you free to pass dictionary with tuples as files:

url = 'http://httpbin.org/post' 
files = {'file': (None, 'some,data,to,send\nanother,row,to,send\n')}
r = requests.post(url, files=files)
