How to upload an image file in Retrofit 2

@Multipart
@POST("user/updateprofile")
Observable<ResponseBody> updateProfile(@Part("user_id") RequestBody id,
                                       @Part("full_name") RequestBody fullName,
                                       @Part MultipartBody.Part image,
                                       @Part("other") RequestBody other);

//pass it like this
File file = new File("/storage/emulated/0/Download/Corrections 6.jpg");
RequestBody requestFile =
        RequestBody.create(MediaType.parse("multipart/form-data"), file);

// MultipartBody.Part is used to send also the actual file name
MultipartBody.Part body =
        MultipartBody.Part.createFormData("image", file.getName(), requestFile);

// add another part within the multipart request
RequestBody fullName = 
        RequestBody.create(MediaType.parse("multipart/form-data"), "Your Name");

service.updateProfile(id, fullName, body, other);

Look at the way I am passing the multipart and string params. Hope this will help you!
