I’m trying to send a file to Browserstack (an .apk file) and when I select the .apk from file selector, what loads is a .zip file.
The .apk is not zipped. It’s file extension should just be .apk. Instead Postman keeps add .zip to the end of the file name.
Is this expected? Can I stop this? Is there a size limit for sending form-data: file?
Hey @claern 
Would you be able to share a visual example of this behaviour, please? It will make it easier to see what’s happening here 
I’ve added a recording to this reply. What’s interesting is that the behavior I was experiencing yesterday is not happening today. Today, the file just doesn’t get added as the value. You’ll see in the video that the smaller, non-zipped .apk uploads just fine.
The zipped .apk was the file that was causing issues yesterday. It was fully extracted, as it is in my video, and when it would be added to the Value it would show the .zip extension and the request would fail.
Now, the file just doesn’t upload to the GUI at all.
Update:
After waiting an unintentional while the file appeared in the Value section:
You know what, I think the .zip thing has to do with how this .apk is being handled by macOS.
I downloaded the artifact from GitHub Actions, which comes as a zipped file. MacOS extracts the contents and it displays as a standalone APK file but in reality it’s a folder 
So I assume that when I add the “folder” Postman is re-compressing the folder into a single zipped file.
there’s a discussion here about it: Can I installing and play APK games on Ma… - Apple Community
Anyways, this whole thing is mostly user error. Sorry for the inconvenience
It’s all good, we’re always here as a sounding board.
