Hi, @Fredito 👋 Did you get this worked out? If not, I have a quick example from Postman using this API. I am happy to share what my successful upload request looks like.

Best,

Jaycee

Hey @Jaycee_Lewis I am in the same boat. I keep trying to use the /files/v3/files endpint but everytime without fail no matter how I format the request I get a 'bad request' response and the content is always empty. Could you show me your example or provide assistance. I can start a new thread and post code if that would be more helpful.
