I stored image in pub/media/catalog/product. How to add that images into media gallery entries.

I have tried like http://myhost/rest/V1/products

"media_gallery_entries"=> array(
 array(
 "media_type"=> "image",
 "label"=> "Product Image",
 "position"=> 1,
 "disabled"=> false,
 "types"=> array(
 "image",
 "small_image",
 "thumbnail"
 ),
 "file"=> "/1/0/10.jpg"
 )
),

but it always complain about "message":"The image content is not valid."

base64_encode is the only way to add image into rest api?

if yes I tried with

"media_gallery_entries"=> array(
 array(
 "media_type"=> "image",
 "label"=> "Product Image",
 "position"=> 1,
 "disabled"=> false,
 "types"=> array(
 "image",
 "small_image",
 "thumbnail"
 ),
 "content"=> array(
 "base64_encoded_data"=> $data->getMainImage(),
 "type"=> "image/jpeg",
 "name"=> "test.jpg"
 ),
 )
),

It throws exception "message":"The image MIME type is not valid or not supported."

I found supported mime type in /vendor/magento/framework/Api/ImageContentValidator.php

private $defaultMimeTypes = [
 'image/jpg',
 'image/jpeg',
 'image/gif',
 'image/png',
];

It support image/jpeg, but I don't know why it throws exception.

Can anyone enlighten me to how to add media galleries entries?

Try with your second example, but instead of media_type, use mediaType tag.

"media_gallery_entries"=> array(
 array(
 "media_type"=> "image",
 "label"=> "Product Image",
 "position"=> 1,
 "disabled"=> false,
 "types"=> array(
 "image",
 "small_image",
 "thumbnail"
 ),
 "content"=> array(
 "base64_encoded_data"=> $data->getMainImage(),
 "type"=> "image/jpeg",
 "name"=> "test.jpg"
 ),
 )
),

Also, you'll probably have to use base64_encode($data->getMainImage()) instead of $data->getMainImage() only.

Notice

1. We should use image_type_to_mime_type function to get the MIME type, not use the file extension, because extension sometime is wrong.




2. 'data:image/'.$type.';base64,' beginning in the base64 string doesn't need in Magento2, we just need base64_encode($imageData);

Work Example: post product image from Magento 1.9 to Magento 2.2

<?php
$imagePath = $product->getImage();
$imageFullPath = Mage::getBaseDir('media').'/catalog/product'.$imagePath;
$imageName = basename($imagePath);
$imageType = exif_imagetype($imageFullPath);
$mimeType = image_type_to_mime_type($imageType);
$imageData = file_get_contents($imageFullPath);
$base64EncodedData = base64_encode($imageData);

$json =
 '
 "product": 
 ...
 "media_gallery_entries": [
 "media_type": "image",
 "label": "'.$imageName.'",
 "position": 0,
 "disabled": false,
 "types": [
 "image",
 "small_image",
 "thumbnail"
 ],
 "file": "'.$imagePath.'",
 "content": 
 "base64_encoded_data": "'.$base64EncodedData.'",
 "type": "'.$mimeType.'",
 "name": "'.$imageName.'"
 
 ],
 ...
