Hi David,
Are you sure that sImage contains the data you want?
What happens if instead of:
put url imageUrl into sImage
you do: put url("binfile:" & imageURL) into sImage
Kind regards

Well the good news (I suppose) is that base64Decode seems to ignore the
carriage returns in the encoded string. The bad news (for me) is that it means
my intermittence issue had nothing to do with the carriage returns.

Wha THAT may be why I was getting intermittent success with a socket
based file transfer utility I developed! I wonder what base64Decode does with a
base64Encoded string if you remove the carriage returns first? I’m going to
have to research that.

The problem may be that base64 encoding inserts line breaks after every 76
chars (a remnant from terminal monitor width restrictions, apparently).
I ran into this a while ago, and cleaning the encoded string with “replace
cr with empty in tString” solved it for me.
I don’t think any textEncode/Deco
If json need utf8, then the last line needs to be:
put textEncode(base64Image,"UTF-8") into encodedImageData
textEncode will convert the bas64 data (stored in livecode as 16bit characters)
to UTF8

I need to put encodeImageData into json (which is utf-8) and then post it
to the api. I'm not sure what aspects of base64 encoding would not be utf8
compatible... seem to remember there are some quirks there to be aware of.
The python code does the decode("utf-8") step at the end - so I guess
