Send form data (with files) using curl

Many recepies for sending data with curl via POST method didn't work for me. Eg, this was not working for me:

🔴

curl -F ‘data=@path/to/local/file’ UPLOAD_ADDRESS

(as advised for example here)

This is one which works for me:

✅

curl -F name=John -F shoesize=11 -F 'file=<file.txt' https://domain.name/form-upload.php

please note the "<" mark in the file form (file=<file.txt)
