GetStream from Image

Hi, How can I GetStream from .NET MAUI Image in code-behind like this:

var imageContent = new StreamContent(await ImageProfile.GetStream());

Thanks, Jassim

You cannot convert the Image or ImageSource to stream directly. I noticed that you named this Image as ImageProfile, would you like to pick a photo from the phone's picture library, then upload the photo to your server side? You can see if Picking a Photo from the Picture Library is what you want and try to implement this function with MAUI. If this picture is loaded from an embedded image, you can get stream like the following code:

Assembly assembly = typeof(MainPage).GetTypeInfo().Assembly; Stream s = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("MauiImageStreamSample.myicon.jpg");//, placing myicon.jpg in the root folder of a project named MauiImageStreamSample
