I have resolved my problem, using answer on this question: How to send application/json data along with file in postman multipart/form-data post request?.

Solution

1) create file for upload to Google Drive: test.txt;

2) create file upload-options.json with file's metadata properties in json format:

{
  "name": "my-uploaded-file.txt",
  "parents": ["<parent-directory-id>"]
}

3) add two form-data fields:

• first - upload-options.json

• second - test.txt
