@isabelcosta What format of input should I expect when developing this feature will the image be uploaded in bytecode or via request?

[isabelcosta]

Is this issue available @isabelcosta ? If yes, then I would like to work on this :)

Is this the process -

• Get the encoded string of image from frontend
• Save the image decoded from string in aws s3.
• Get the photo url from aws and store it in db
• Return photto url in the update user profile api endpoint.

@CleverFool77 a practice here in the community is to wait for maintainers to approve that you work on the issue before sending a PR, so that we can manage better the issues. Keep that in mind for future contributions please

[CleverFool77]

I'll surely keep that in mind from next time @isabelcosta

@anna4j @codesankalp this issue is already completed, we are blocked by infrastructure needs such as AWS.
