Uploading screenshot to aws

At a glance

The post asks whether uploading screenshots to AWS while using a proxy server will consume the proxy server's bandwidth. The first comment confirms that it will, and recommends not using a proxy for the upload. Another community member suggests creating a hash string of the base64 image instead of transferring the full base64 data, as this would reduce the character size and save proxy bandwidth. However, the third comment notes that this would prevent reverting the hash back to the original image.

I am trying to upload screenshot to AWS and also using proxy server. Will uploading process consume any bandwidth of proxy servers?

Yes it will. I would recommend not using proxy for the upload.
I am extracting base64 images from website and then storing it by uploading it to s3 bucket. Instead of transfering base64 images can I create a hash string of base64 image which will reduce character size which by default will help in saving proxy bandwidth?
It will save traffic but you cannot revert hash back so it won't be an image anymore πŸ™‚
