First Step: On my MVC project I have a Div that allow to upload a file.

<div id="modalUpload" style="display:none">
    Select a file:
    <input id="upload" type="file" name="upload" /><br />
    Description:
    <input id="documentDescription" type="text" /><br />
    <input type="button" value="Submit" id="submitUpload" data-bind="click:function(){ $root.upload() }">
 </div>

Second Step: In JavaScript I upload the Document to the web API with a POST request: (for example, with the XMLHttpRequest method)

self.upload = function () {
        var file = document.getElementById("upload").files[0];
        var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
        xhr.open('post', "/API/document/addDocument/", true);
        xhr.send(file);
}

Third Step: This is my addDocument function on the Web API that expects a Document object, like this:

    [HttpPost]
    [Route("{controller}/addDocument")]
    public string Post([FromBody]Document doc)
    {
       .......
    }

My question is, how can I post the Document to the API as a Document object? Is it possible to set the type of the POST data?

On my JavaScript code, I have a Document object:

 var Document = function (data) {
      this.id = ko.observable(data.id);
      this.name= ko.observable(data.name);
      this.size= ko.observable(data.zise);
}

But I'm not sure how to connect between them.

When I tried this:

var file = new Document(document.getElementById("upload").files[0]);

I got the following error:

415 (Unsupported Media Type)

Any help would be very much appreciated.

One possible issue is that you'll need to make sure your XHR request declares the correct MIME type in the accept header.

Using XHR directly can be a bit of a pain. You may want to consider using a client-side library (such as jquery) to make things easier and handle any cross-browser inconsistencies.

You could try getting it as an HttpPostedFileBase

  [HttpPost]
    [Route("{controller}/addDocument")]
    public string Post(HttpPostedFileBase doc)
    {
       //Parse it to a doc and do what you gotta do
    }

Finally, I didn't send the document as an object, and this is what I ended up doing,

self.upload = function () {
    if (document.getElementById("upload").value != "") {
        var file = document.getElementById("upload").files[0];
        var filePath = "....";
        if (window.FormData !== undefined) {
            var data = new FormData();
            data.append("file", file);
            var encodedString = Base64.encode(filePath);

            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "/API/document/upload/" + file.name + "/" + encodedString ,
                contentType: false,
                processData: false,
                data: data,
                success: function (result) {
                    console.log(result);
                },
                error: function (xhr, status, p3, p4) {
                    var err = "Error " + " " + status + " " + p3 + " " + p4;
                    if (xhr.responseText && xhr.responseText[0] == "{")
                        err = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText).Message;
                    console.log(err);
                }
            });
        }
    }
}

And this is my API function:

[HttpPost]
    [Route("{controller}/upload/{fileName}/{filePath}")]
    public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> UploadFile(string fileName, string filePath)
    {

        if (!Request.Content.IsMimeMultipartContent())
        {
            return Request.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.UnsupportedMediaType, "The request doesn't contain valid content!");
        }
        byte[] data = Convert.FromBase64String(filePath);
        filePath = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(data);
        try
        {
            var provider = new MultipartMemoryStreamProvider();
            await Request.Content.ReadAsMultipartAsync(provider);
            foreach (var file in provider.Contents)
            {
                var dataStream = await file.ReadAsStreamAsync();
                // use the data stream to persist the data to the server (file system etc)
                using (var fileStream = File.Create(filePath + fileName))
                {
                    dataStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
                    dataStream.CopyTo(fileStream);
                }
                var response = Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK);
                response.Content = new StringContent("Successful upload", Encoding.UTF8, "text/plain");
                response.Content.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue(@"text/html");
                return response;
            }
            return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.ExpectationFailed);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            return Request.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, e.Message);
        }
    }

That works perfectly, I got the idea from here.
