[rorry121]

addfiles(imagebase64):Observable {
let url = "http://XXXXX:1337/parse/files/111.jpg"
let addHeader = new Headers();
addHeader.append("X-Parse-Application-Id","XXXXX")
addHeader.append("X-Parse-Master-Key","XXXXX")

I have the same issue. I believe this is a bug?

@doender if you upload an encoded file to parse-server it will not decode it for you. This is not a bug. Whatever is in the file you upload is what the file will retain when you download. If you want your file to to be accessible as a JPG, PNG, PDF, or any other format be sure to set:

• the appropriate content type (for proper interpretation on download)
• the file data as it would be read normally, unencoded

If you upload encoded data, like in base64, the file you will get later will be exactly that, base64 encoded data. In that case you would have to decode that data client side first before viewing.
