Hey , here is an updated example of the file upload, you can find it in our pipedrive file upload tutorial https://developers.pipedrive.com/tutorials/adding-files-via-pipedrive-api?step=7

// All tutorial Node.js code examples are for reference only and shouldn't be used in production code as is.
// In production, a new Configuration() instance should be initialised separately for each request.
const pipedrive = require('pipedrive');
const fs = require('fs');
const { File } = require('node:buffer');

// Configure authorization by setting api key
// PIPEDRIVE_API_KEY is an environment variable that holds real api key
const defaultClient = new pipedrive.v1.Configuration({
        apiKey: process.env.PIPEDRIVE_API_KEY,
});

async function addFile() {
        try {
                console.log('Sending request...');

                const api = new pipedrive.v1.FilesApi(defaultClient);

                // Read the file from disk into a Buffer
                const filepath = './example.txt';
                const fileBuffer = fs.readFileSync(filepath);

                // Create a File object from the buffer
                const fileToUpload = new File([fileBuffer], 'example.txt', {
                        type: 'text/plain',
                });

                // Upload the file - note the object structure
                const response = await api.addFile({
                        file: fileToUpload,
                        deal_id: 1,
                        // You can also associate with other entities:
                        // person_id: 1,
                        // org_id: 1,
                        // activity_id: 1,
                        // product_id: 1
                });

                console.log('File was added successfully!', response);
        } catch (err) {
                const errorToLog = err.context?.body || err;

                console.log('Adding a file failed', errorToLog);
        }
}

addFile();
