Question 5124 in Facebook API Question posted in
The official documentation for the Facebook APIs can be found here.

The provided image file is invalid. Please check your image path again. Facebook Graph Api error

I am trying to upload image to Facebook graph api with Http Client of Laravel. But I am getting the error mentioned before.

    $ad_account_id = env("AD_ACCOUNT_ID");
    $access_token = env("ACCESS_TOKEN");
    $image = $request->file('image');

    $response = Http::asForm()
        ->withHeaders(['Content-Type: multipart/form-data'])
        ->post('https://graph.facebook.com/v14.0/act_' . $ad_account_id . '/adimages',
            [
                'filename' => file_get_contents($image),
                'access_token' => $access_token
            ]
        );

    dd(json_decode($response->body()));

In documentation Facebook gives me curl api example like this

curl 
  -F 'filename=@<IMAGE_PATH>' 
  -F 'access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>' 
  https://graph.facebook.com/v<API_VERSION>/act_<AD_ACCOUNT_ID>/adimages

Problem is all about IMAGE_PATH. I have tried to send any kind of path of uploaded image even in base64 format. I am able to upload the same image with same api in Postman. There is not any problem about access_token or ad_account_id.

    Solved my problem by using attach method of HTTP client:

    $ad_account_id = env("AD_ACCOUNT_ID");
$access_token = env("ACCESS_TOKEN");
$image = $request->file('image');

$response = Http::attach('filename', file_get_contents($image), 'image.jpg')
    ->post('https://graph.facebook.com/v14.0/act_' . $ad_account_id . '/adimages',
        [
            'access_token' => $access_token
        ]
    );

dd(json_decode($response->body()));

    Will recommend to use PHP SDK for such operations.
    https://github.com/facebook/facebook-php-business-sdk

    
    $account = new FacebookAdsObjectAdAccount('Your ID');
    assert($account instanceof FacebookAdsObjectAdAccount);
    $account->createAdImage(['array of fields'],['array of request Params'],);
