Description
I am trying to create a png file as attachment in azure wiki as code and getting the following issue:
azure.devops.exceptions.AzureDevOpsServiceError: The wiki attachment creation failed with message : The input is not a valid Base-64 string as it contains a non-base 64 character, more than two padding characters, or an illegal character among the padding characters.
This is the snippet
version_descriptor = GitVersionDescriptor(version="main",version_type="branch")
with open("./sample-image.png","rb") as png_file:
wiki_client.create_attachment(upload_stream=png_file, version_descriptor=version_descriptor, project="<project-name>", wiki_identifier="<wiki-name>", name="sample-image.png")
