[@JuiKoloshi]

Is there some way to change the destination folder from something like: formData.append("filedestination", 'path/to/file');

[@JuiKoloshi]

it seems like request in multer destination callback have no access to other formdata-fields :( I can't believe it can't be changed dynamically

[@gorantrtic6767]

Hello, I love your tutorials. I have a question, I'm trying to upload image to MySQL, but instead of real image path, in my database I get C:/fakepath/123.png and image doesn't appear in server folder at all. I'm using React for frontend and NodeJS with sequelize. Do you maybe know what the problem is?

[@nidhishsrivastava4868]

same is happeniing with me,in my mongo db,

[@gustuckit2052]

This is a privacy feature of most browser to prevent scripts from seeing your file paths. Use a different method of getting the file path

[@SouzoHenrique]

[@eduardocerutti]

Fiquei com uma dúvida aq, imagina q depois eu quero fazer uma requisição pra essa api para acessar essa imagem, o melhor caso seria a api me enviar o nome da imagem e eu acessar uma url/nomeDaImagem, como q eu faria pra "expor" a pasta dessas imagens em uma URL?

[@carylmontero8593]

[@nomanaslam8648]
