Here's a tip you might find useful if you work with REST API and need to upload a file. Postman can be of good use to test this upload file API. Just follow these steps :

Set method type to "POST"
Select "Body"
Select "form-data"
Hover cursor on the right-most side of "Key" text-box. You will see a drop-down appearing magically with "text" as selected value.
Select "File" from the drop-down options and you will see "Select Files" button appearing in the value text-box.
Click on "Select Files" and it will open a file dialog.
Select one or more files and click on "Open" button.

Voila !! You are all set to send a request with Files.
