The HTTP response code indicates that the request is not handled by the server. Check if you are able to make the file upload request from Postman or not. – Teja Goud Kandula
If there is any HTTP header configured for this HTTP request can you share an image showing that. – Teja Goud Kandula

We don't know how to fix the issue because we don't know how the request should look like, moreover you don't show us "Parameters" tab of the HTTP Request sampler and HTTP Header Manager configuration.

So if you have another way of successfully calling this API like curl or Postman or other tool - you should be able to record the request using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, see How to Convert Your Postman API Tests to JMeter for Scaling article for example setup.

If not, you need to check your API endpoint documentation, application logs or ask around for the proper request format, once you know it you should be able to amend the request yourself or provide us more details so we could assist.
