How to make the input format for Real Time endpoints ?

Question

Hello,

I want to test my endpoint. My data are images.

Here's what is indicated for input data :

{
  "input_data": {
    "columns": [
      "image"
    ],
    "index": [],
    "data": []
  }
}

But how do I give my images ? What sould I add in this json file ?

I found the answer :

image_path = 'path/to/image.png'

# Read the image and encode it as base64
with open(image_path, "rb") as img_file:
    image_data = base64.b64encode(img_file.read()).decode('utf-8')

# Structure the data payload
data = {
  "input_data": {
    "columns": [
      "image"
    ],
    "index": [0], #index of the image data
    "data": [image_data]
  }
}
body = str.encode(json.dumps(data))
