    Hello Bhargav,
     As i am not a GCP expert - any GCP specific format?
    If not - i assume as you are talking about buckets , you are looking for a Base64 encoding?
    So your question is essentially how to encode files with base64 in appian?
    Can you confirm this?
    Kind regards, 
    Richard

    hello richard , 

    yes , i need document to be converted into base64 encoding . For this i have tried some thing as below and request boy shows it's converted to base64 format . But the actual problem here is GCP team is receiving the file in encode format and when tried to decode it's showing invalid content , does our encoding in appian gives wrong format with the method i have tried ?

    I think the issue here is, that you wrap the document into a JSON string. I think it would make more sense to choose the correct content type, and then only send the document.
