How to add image files from a excel file to the confluence attachments using script

[Nachikethas E]

I was writing a script for automatically updating the data in the confluence page

Now I need to add some of the image file (png) to confluence page

1. I cannot directly take from the local storage 

2. I need to add images in the confluence attachments and then I need to add the file in confluence

For the second option I need to know how I can add images from my excel file directly to confluence attachments using script

This is the documentation of the REST API call which creates a new attachment:

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v1/api-group-content---attachments/#api-wiki-rest-api-content-id-child-attachment-post

As you see you have to pass the attachment content in the request body. For that, you have to be able to read that from the Excel file.
