How to save uploaded image to folder in flask
You are only passing some strings to the handler ("image" and "image_type"). You need to POST the actual data file (image) from the web page to the backend. Then use:
FileStorage(image, image_name, content_type=image_type)
This function cannot go read a file from a folder path on the client. It needs the stream as bytes:
image_bytes = image.read()
