Are you sure about your content-type and what you are doing ?

  • for zip content type application/json is wrong.
  • fileToString will try to transform byes(zip) to text which cannot work

Try

  • checking Use multipart/form-data for Post
  • and Browser compatible headers .
  • remove FileToString call and use last tab Files upload instead of body data. And use there the content type application/zip or something suitable

If you are trying to upload a file and send a body, you may need to use nightly build.
