------------FIXED------------------

I have fixed the problem, should have used media.GetUdi().ToString()

Hi

Has anyone managed to add an image via the API when using nested content?

My code is below, but the problem I have is I get a message saying the image is trashed, but below that is the image.

I have also attached the image.

Code for adding the image to media

 public string ReturnSerializedJsonMediaObject(string excelColumn, string ncContentTypeAlias, string pathToExtractZipFile)
        {
            try
            {
                if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(excelColumn))
                {

                    string[] splitExcelColumn = excelColumn.Split(';');

                    var nestedContentHelpers = new List<Dictionary<string, string>>();

                    foreach (var columnData in splitExcelColumn)
                    {
                        string[] splitHeaderAndBodyText = columnData.Split(',');

                        Guid nestedContentKey = Guid.NewGuid();

                        string retrieveImage = Directory.EnumerateFiles(pathToExtractZipFile, splitHeaderAndBodyText[0], SearchOption.AllDirectories).First();


                        using (Stream stream = System.IO.File.OpenRead(retrieveImage))
                        {
                            string imageExtension = Path.GetExtension(retrieveImage);

                            IMedia media = _iMediaService.CreateMediaWithIdentity(nestedContentKey.ToString(), -1, "Image");
                            media.SetValue(_iContentTypeBaseServiceProvider, Constants.Conventions.Media.File, $"{nestedContentKey.ToString()}{imageExtension}", stream);
                            _iMediaService.Save(media);

                            nestedContentHelpers.Add(new Dictionary<string, string>()
                            {
                                {"key", nestedContentKey.ToString()},
                                {"name", splitHeaderAndBodyText[0]},
                                {"ncContentTypeAlias", ncContentTypeAlias},
                                {"image", media.Path},
                                {"imageAltText", splitHeaderAndBodyText[1]},
                            });
                        }
                    }

                    return JsonConvert.SerializeObject(nestedContentHelpers);
                }

                return string.Empty;
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Current.Logger.Error(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().GetType(), $"Error adding Nested Content {e}", e);
                return string.Empty;
            }
        }

Code for adding content which is a foreach loop

 var nestedContentImage = _iNestedContentMediaPropertiesHelper.ReturnSerializedJsonMediaObject(images, "nestedImagesDocType", pathToExtractZipFile);

                                    content.SetValue("images", nestedContentImage);

                                    _iContentService.SaveAndPublish(content);
