Mockaroo data set upload API problem

#1

Has anyone run into this one?

Note that this is the first attempt at using this feature.
I tried the same thing using the mockaroo-python library from @scarvy.
Had the same results with python results, his library and the CLI he provided so I don’t suspect the mockaroo-python library.

I downloaded an existing data set and then uploaded it using the REST API.

Results:
The new dataset FILE, as viewed in the GUI, is improperly named data.csv.
The file contains extra junk (example below) and doesn’t work correctly when referenced in a schema.

Is the data set upload API having a problem or am I doing something wrong?
Does anyone have a recent example that is working?

I found the solution.
Instead of (using python requests library)
files = {‘file’: open(file_path, ‘rb’)}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, files=files)

I need to use the following where it reads the data first vs referencing it as a file.

with open(file_path, 'rb') as f:
    file_content = f.read()       
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=file_content)
