I have a frontend website made using Angular that accepts an uploaded file. I want to be able to save this file into the web server the website is being hosted on. I would prefer to only use Angular to do this, but I can also accept if there is a way to do it in ASP.Net Web API backend.
You can download the webserver file using angular.
Try the below example...
downloadFile() {
window.open("http://www.africau.edu/images/default/sample.pdf") //your URL
}

Writing an windows service using the .net framework (not dotnetcore) with c# that needs a web interface to manage it. No IIS or anything else installed other than the app to serve html files for the web interface - so need a webserver to serve static html files.
The static html file that will be served will call web api methods via javascript to query data and manage the internals of the service.
Already using self hosted web api with HttpSelfHostServer to write methods that can be queried via javascript using ApiController.
To serve the static html file I could do the following:
Use HttpListener to serve the static html file
Write a method in a ApiController that returns FileContent using HttpSelfHostServer and create a "index.html" route
Since they are just static files I could just HttpSelfHostServer and have a webapi method return the contents of the html file.
Not sure if there is a benefit of one over the other in this case. Any thoughts?

I am trying to upload a file from a client to a MVC application, and then have the MVC application pass the upload file to a web api.
So far I overrode the IHostBufferPolicySelector to stream any incoming HTTP requests that are greater than a given size. So any large file uploads made to MVC is being received as a stream.
I thought of two solutions to this problem, but open to any suggestions.
Have MVC temporarily store the file, then send that file over to the web api
Somehow pass the stream of the file that is coming into MVC, over to the web api
Is there a way to achieve option 2? Can I pass an incoming stream to another web service?

I want to upload a video file using asp.net mvc . I am sending the file as postbody. How can this be retrieved later from the server using webservice. I have seen this example . Also this question helped me to understand it more. But I m not sure how to fetch post body.
But no sure how this works. How to do his properly in .net c#
In order for the file to be available later, you need to save it somewhere during the upload - either to a database or a folder on the server. Then, your web service needs to know how to retrieve it from that location.
