Is it possible to include a file in a request via the GET method in the HTTP protocol?

In HTTP, the GET method is intended for retrieving resources and does not include a request body. Therefore, including a file in the GET request body is not possible.

If you need to send a file to the server, usually POST or PUT methods are used, where the request body can contain a file (e.g., in multipart/form-data format).

Technically, you can encode file data in URL parameters (e.g., base64), but this is inefficient and limited by URL length, so it is not used in practice.

In summary: files are not sent in GET requests; other HTTP methods are used for that.
