GraphiQL - upload file
How can we upload files using in-browser GraphQL IDE GraphiQL, is that even possible ? (apart from base64 encoded string)
Once I have the file stream / file contents I can create a mulipart request and store on DB or some object-storage service.
But I am not able to figure it out how to provide the file input / how the schema would look like. Is it better to use graphql-upload with Curl request. Please suggest which is the optimal solution.

Currently GraphIQL does not support file uploads. You can use an API tool to do this such as Postman, Insomnia or plan old cURL. The important distinction is that it needs to be a multi-part form upload.
Example request:
curl --request POST
--url http://localhost:4000/
--header 'accept: application/json'
--header 'accept-encoding: gzip, deflate, br'
--header 'connection: keep-alive'
--header 'dnt: 1'
--header 'origin: http://localhost:4000'
--form 'operations={"query": "mutation UploadFile($file: Upload!) { uploadFile(file: $file)}", "variables": { "file": null } }'
--form 'map={ "nFile": ["variables.file"] }'
--form nFile=@/tmp/testfile
Substitute /tmp/testfile in the request above with a path to the file you want to upload.
