Notes

• The ImageFile and json parameters are sent as part of the multipart/form-data request, not in the request body.
• The ImageFile is uploaded as a JPEG image (image/jpg), while the json field contains the metadata about the image event in JSON format (application/json; charset=utf-8).
• Parameter types:
  • unsigned int: An integer that is guaranteed to be non-negative.
  • unsigned long: A larger integer that is also non-negative.
  • double: A floating-point number with double precision (for coordinates).
  • string: A sequence of characters (e.g., warehouse ID, response message).
