Postman file uploading: the file path became missing when I close the request tab

Question

I'm uploading files through PUT request and put my file as a Binary into the Body request:

The problem is that the file path became missing once I close the request tab and I try to run through Runner, so this makes it impossible to run it through Runner.

Here's the screencast of what I mean: http://take.ms/ptLCT

Is there a way to save the file path inside the request body?

This seems to be a long standing issue with postman that is still not resolved. It seems you can get around it by using newman instead (postman commandline runner). Alternatively check out Insomnia REST client instead, which seems to support this.
