// init
const multer = require('multer');
const path = require('path');
// "images" are the folder name
const fileStorage = multer.diskStorage({
destination: (req, file, cb) => {
cb(null, 'images');
},
});
// put this to config the multer
app.use(multer({ storage: fileStorage }).single('image'));
// this is for serving file staticly with "path" module
app.use('/images', express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'images')));
Also make sure you write enctype=multipart/form-data in the form tag not in the input tag AND
add type=file attribute in the input tag

Try this:
app.post('/api/upload', upload.single('image'), function (req, res, next) {
console.log(req.file);
})
