$title = $request->title;
$uploaded_file = $request->file('file');

Answer 1

create a folder 'upload/files' inside storage/app/public , and /upload/files/audio
then run command : php artisan storage:link
this command will link your storage folder to public folder
update your code :
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Api;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;
use App\File;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Response;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\URL;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Carbon\Carbon;
public function store(Request $request)
{
// validation
$this->validate($request, [
'title' => 'required',
'description' => 'nullable',
'file' => 'required|file|mimes:jpeg,jpg,png,gif|max:2048',
'audio' =>'nullable|file|mimes:audio/mpeg,mpga,mp3,wav,aac'
]);
// code for upload 'file'
if($request->hasFile('file')){
$uniqueid=uniqid();
$original_name=$request->file('file')->getClientOriginalName();
$size=$request->file('file')->getSize();
$extension=$request->file('file')->getClientOriginalExtension();
$name=Carbon::now()->format('Ymd').'_'.$uniqueid.'.'.$extension;
$imagepath=url('/storage/uploads/files/'.$name);
$path=$request->file('file')->storeAs('public/uploads/files/',$name);
}
// code for upload 'audio'
// handle multiple files
if(is_array($request->file('audio')))
{
$audios=array();
foreach($request->file('audio') as $file) {
$uniqueid=uniqid();
$original_name=$file->getClientOriginalName();
$size=$file->getSize();
$extension=$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
$filename=Carbon::now()->format('Ymd').'_'.$uniqueid.'.'.$extension;
$audiopath=url('/storage/upload/files/audio/'.$filename);
$path=$file->storeAs('/upload/files/audio',$filename);
array_push($audios,$audiopath);
}
$all_audios=implode(",",$audios);
}else{
// handle single file
if($request->hasFile('audio')){
$uniqueid=uniqid();
$original_name=$request->file('audio')->getClientOriginalName();
$size=$request->file('audio')->getSize();
$extension=$request->file('audio')->getClientOriginalExtension();
$filename=Carbon::now()->format('Ymd').'_'.$uniqueid.'.'.$extension;
$audiopath=url('/storage/upload/files/audio/'.$filename);
$path=$file->storeAs('public/upload/files/audio/',$filename);
$all_audios=$audiopath;
}
}
}
in your postman request :
add key : "file" for image file ,
"audio" for audio file

Answer 2

you can use these there sentences for upload any multipart
$file = $request->file;
$filename = time() . '.' . $file->getClientOriginalExtension();
$file->move('your-path', $filename);
and if you need to upload multi audios or images make sure your key on postman wrote like this
images[]
or
audios[]
