formData & Buffer Issue

I’m attempting to use the code below and want to use the “FormData();” object to pass my dataset values (includes files and images) to my product (which is outside of Wix). However, I am getting errors when using this and well as with the standard “Buffer.from”.

Does any one have the optimal way to handle this within Wix?

import {getJSON} from ‘wix-fetch’;
import wixData from ‘wix-data’;

wixData.get(‘OnboardingDataset’, ‘item-key’)
.then(customer => {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append(“Industry”, customer[‘Industry’]);
formData.append(“Users”, customer[‘Users’]);
formData.append(“Integration”, customer[‘Integration’]);
formData.append(“Template PDF”, customer[‘Template PDF’]);
formData.append(“Logo”, customer[‘Logo’]);
formData.append(“Email”, , customer[‘Email’]);
formData.append(“BusinessName”, customer[‘Business Name’]);
formData.append(“Business Address”, customer[‘Business Address’]);
formData.append(“Business City”, customer[‘Business City’]);
formData.append(“Business State”, customer[‘Business State’]);
formData.append(“Business Zip”, customer[‘Business Email’]);
formData.append(“Business Phone”, customer[‘Business Phone’]);
formData.append(“Template Name”, customer[‘Template Name’]);

    return getJson('https://selfservicedev.expedata.net/qawebapi/onboarding/v1/init', { 
        method: 'POST', 
        headers: { 
            Authorization: 'Basic ' + Buffer.from(customer['Email'] + ":" + customer['Password']).toString('base64'), 
        }, 
        body: formData 
    }); 
}) 
.then(result => { 
    const templatesUrl = result.templatesUrl; 
    const newTemplateDesignerUrl = result.newTemplateDesignerUrl; 

    // Do something with the urls. 
}) 
.catch(err => { 
    // Handle the error 
});

Hi,
The wixData.get() function gets the collection name and the ID of the item, not a string (“item-key”).
FormData and Buffer aren’t supported by wix code, if you wish to send the data using http request, please check out this article.
