@telsch, thank you for reporting this. What document type did you upload ? pdf, jpeg, png or tiff ?

I have only tried to upload a PDF. Also set the content type to application/pdf failed.

I just checked, indeed, for some reason, it always reports "unsupported media type".
Thank you for reporting this bug! Will be fixed.

Hi,
tried with a .png with the same outcome.
I've updated my importer to manage errors a lot better (version 1.2.0 of the docker image)
