Hi Team,
I’m encountering an issue while uploading a file as part of the integration. The upload works fine for PDF files, but when I try with a .rtf.gz file, I receive a 403 Forbidden error. Interestingly, when I upload the same file to the same URL using Postman, it works without any problem.
.rtf.gz
Could someone please look into this integration issue and help me resolve it? Thanks in advance.

This is not an Appian permission issue. The 403 occurs because the .rtf.gz upload from Appian differs from Postman in headers or encoding. PDFs work because they are more forgiving. The fix is to align Content-Type, Content-Encoding, and request body format exactly with the Postman request or update backend security rules.
