When i try to upload a file i received in a pabbly email parser i get this error, only happens with the file url from pabbly.
Status Code: 417
Response Text: ERR: Expected hex 0x in '{0}'.

import requests
from urllib.parse import urlparse

# Set the filename manually or extract it from the URL
manual_filename = f'1. Subject : introductie Rianne2 {{pc_local_date_now}}.pdf'

# API URL for file upload
upload_url = 'https://private31527/ExternalApi/api/CrewingDocumentsContent/UploadFile'

# API headers
headers = {
'Accept': 'application/json',
'apiKey': '{{PrivateTransafeKey}}'
}

# Form data
data = {
'EntityID': '{{3. Result : RiannerIntroductieIDnr}}'
}

# File download URL (direct download link from Google Drive)
file_url = 'https://pcmailhook.com/attachments/2025/01/01/xxx562_03.10-Introduction-for--on--completed-on-.pdf'

# Download the file
file_response = requests.get(file_url)

if file_response.status_code == 200:
    # Use the manually set filename
    filename = manual_filename

    # Prepare the file for upload
    files = {'File': (filename, file_response.content)}

    # Send the POST request to upload the file
    response = requests.post(upload_url, headers=headers, data=data, files=files)

    # Output the response
    print(f"Status Code: {response.status_code}")
    print(f"Response Text: {response.text}")
else:
    print(f"Failed to download the file. Status code: {file_response.status_code}")

the same happens if i make it in a normal api call

It seems to work now after am afternoon of errors.
I am still curious on the why Soni can deal with it when needed.

As of now, we don't know the reason why you encountered that error, so we won't be able to comment on it.

Lets hope it stays in a working condition
