How to pass Appian document as Binary with REST API request body

Question

I need simple solution for document to binary conversion within appian. As request body I should be able to pass a document into a binary format while calling a REST API POST method.

I've followed below links and those are not helpful for me.

There isn't a way to do that except using a third-party service. You can convert documents in base64 easily but not binary. What is the purpose?
