Anybody know if it’s possible to take a response from API call that sends a file as

application/binary

and convert it to base64 text to save it to the file cabinet in SuiteScript? The traditional javascript methods like

btoa()

arent’ available serverside.

generally you are doomed if this is suitescript serverside

I had to do the reverse - sending an octect stream to an API so ended up writing an Azure Functions middleman to translate NetSuite's base64.

I am actually thinking of going the same route with an azure function for my use case. One interesting thing I found in my research was that if the content-type of the response is

application/octet-stream

then NetSuite will auto convert the binary data into base64 text. Any other content-type, like

application/binary

and it won’t auto convert, just treats it like text.
