No binary data of picture returned in REST-API (SOLVED)

[jannes]

A REST API call retrieves data from a person.
It works fine but the photo (format = Picture, stored in database) is not returned.
This field is missing in the response.

According to a tip on the forum, DOCDATA should be used in the attribute.
WebResult.Photo=Person.Photo.DOCDATA

But this doesn't work.
How to get the binary data of the picture in the response?

Hi Jaymer,

I changed the text of the post.
I hope it makes more sense now.

1) Are you consuming or exposing a REST service?
2) If you are consuming what are your settings?
3) Can you provide a link to the forum thread with a tip about DOCDATA?

Exposing :

Service will retun object : WebResult

REST Service Settings

Instead of specifying the name of the attribute, specify the name of the attribute followed by dot and "DOCDATA", for example: AttriibuteName.DOCDATA

This should return the binary data of the picture

The binary data can be retrieved via :

WebResult.Foto=IMAGE_DATA(Persoon.Foto)

WebResult.Foto must be a (big) PlainText (MEDIUMTEXT)
