Let’s be honest—most of us have been using Windows since we were kids. It’s the backbone of the corporate world and feels like the default choice for every computer user. For years, I thought it was the only real option. But what if I told you there isn't just an "alternative" out there, but a genuine upgrade? When people talk about switching to Linux , it can feel overwhelming because there are so many versions. However, I want to talk specifically about Ubuntu .
Here is solution to upload file in third party system using apex in salesforce.
below is formdata builder apex class which is building required parameters.

here is file upload apex class method. Where we are sending multiple parameters (metadata of document) and file body.
public void uploadFile(){
string contentType = HttpFormBuilder.GetContentType();
string form64 = '';
//adding documents metadata or properties
form64 += FormData.append('key','Value');
form64 += FormData.append('key','value');
//adding documents body with file parameter
blob formBlob= FormData.makeBlobWithFile('file',attachBody,filename,form64);
string contentLength = string.valueOf(formBlob.size());
HttpRequest httpRequest = new HttpRequest();
httpRequest.setBodyAsBlob(formBlob);
httpRequest.setHeader('Connection', 'keep-alive');
httpRequest.setHeader('Content-Length', contentLength);
httpRequest.setHeader('Content-Type', contentType);
httpRequest.setMethod('POST');
httpRequest.setTimeout(120000);
httpRequest.setHeader('Accept', 'application/json');
httpRequest.setHeader('Authorization',' ');
httpRequest.setEndpoint('END POINT');
Http http = new Http();
HttpResponse res = http.send(httpRequest);
