Uploadthing uploading directly from express server
I am using Whatsapp Cloud API from which I am receiving different types of messages and processing it. For processing Images, Whatsapp sends the image in binary format which I am getting in my express server with responseType: "arraybuffer" format. I want to upload this image directly to uploadthing once I receive it from the Whatsapp API. How to go about this?
I have setup the following from the uplaodthing website express code
- /api/uploadthing route in my express server
- uploadthing.js copying the express code on uploadthing website (file is attached here)
I am confused how to actually upload the image is there some upload function in the sdk or doing an axios.post to the api available to me?
Thanks for the help !

Make sure to replace
<binary image>
and <image name>
with the correct values.
