    The depends a lot on the type of interfaces the other system supports. If this is a document management system like OpenText, it probably has some API which you might want to have a look at.

    Integrations support Multipart Form Data (multipart/form-data). That should allow you to make the file the first part, and add a JSON object as the second part.
