Streaming files to API (uploading) without multipart/form-data

[maeni70]

Expected Behavior

Allow sending files in chunks (via stream) without multipart/form-data.

The same question has already been asked at stackoverflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35478663/upload-file-without-multipart-form-data-using-restsharp

However, it has not been correctly answered.

Is there any way how to stream large files to an API but without multipart/form-data? I retrieve an "UnsupportedMediaType" response when trying to do so. It seems that RestSharp is automatically sending the request as multipart/form-data if files are attached in body.

There are examples how to do with .NET HttpWebRequest (see linked stackoverflow question above) or Java, but I could not achieve with RestSharp library.

Thanks,
Roger

For the specific upload functionality I have written own logic using standard HttpClient, which is a pity as I have to maintain an additional client object (with corresponding redundancies).
