It is well explained here:

Browser Side Code:

HTML

<form id="form" name="form" action="/uploader" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">
  <div class="buttons">
    <div class="upload-button">
      <div class="label">Click me!</div>
      <input id="files" name="files" type="file" size="1" multiple onchange="uploadFiles('files');" />
    </div>
  </div>
</form>

JavaScript

function uploadFiles(inputId) {
  var input = document.getElementById(inputId);
  var files = input.files;
  var formData = new FormData();

  for (var i = 0; i != files.length; i++) {
    formData.append("files", files[i]);
  }

  $.ajax(
    {
      url: "/uploader",
      data: formData,
      processData: false,
      contentType: false,
      type: "POST",
      success: function (data) {
        alert("Files Uploaded!");
      }
    }
  );
}

Server Side Code:

[HttpPost]
public async Task<IActionResult> Index(IList<IFormFile> files)
{
  foreach (IFormFile source in files)
  {
    string filename = ContentDispositionHeaderValue.Parse(source.ContentDisposition).FileName.Trim('"');

    filename = this.EnsureCorrectFilename(filename);

    using (FileStream output = System.IO.File.Create(this.GetPathAndFilename(filename)))
      await source.CopyToAsync(output);
  }

  return this.View();
}

private string EnsureCorrectFilename(string filename)
{
  if (filename.Contains("\\"))
    filename = filename.Substring(filename.LastIndexOf("\\") + 1);

  return filename;
}

private string GetPathAndFilename(string filename)
{
  return this.hostingEnvironment.WebRootPath + "\\uploads\\" + filename;
}
