Bulk Import C# RestSharp

Question

I'm exploring Bulk Import via the REST API and can successfully post an import through Postman. When I try to use the code snippet from Postman, I get the following error:"{"requestId":"1b0d#16875fb3c42","success":false,"errors":[{"code":"1003","message":"Empty file"}]}" The code is below:if (File.Exists(Path.Combine(folderName, fileName)))            {                var client = new RestClient(host + "/bulk/v1/leads.json?format=csv&access_token=" + getToken());                var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);                request.AddHeader("cache-control", "no-cache");                request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW");               //C:\MarketoBulkImport\import.csv is hard-coded below, but it is the same file path as what's being checked in the above File.Exists                request.AddParameter("multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW", "------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="C:\MarketoBulkImport\import.csv"
Content-Type: text/csv


------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW--", ParameterType.RequestBody);               IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);                return response.ToString();            }            else {                return "file doesn't exists";            }

I still get the same error when I try thisif (File.Exists(Path.Combine(folderName, fileName)))            {                var client = new RestClient(host);                var request = new RestRequest("/bulk/v1/leads.json?format=csv&access_token=" + getToken(), Method.POST);                request.AlwaysMultipartFormData = true;                request.AddHeader("cache-control", "no-cache");                request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW");                request.AddParameter("multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW", "------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename=import.csv
Content-Type: text/csv


------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW--", ParameterType.RequestBody);                request.AddFile("import", @"C:\MarketoBulkImport\import.csv");                IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);                return response.ToString();            }            else            {                return "file doesn't exists";            }Based on the RestSharp docs, you're mixing together conflicting semantics.When you AddHeader("Content-Type"), you don't add the boundary string, that's up to the library. Just set the MIME type.You don't need to AddParameter() if you're using AddFile(). Make sure the MIME segment name is "file" as it is in the initial payload, not "import".

The file in the payload is indeed empty.  You aren't reading the CSV from disk at any point.
