Abinash can you share json data which worked for you. I am also stuck here:

--boundary_string
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="entity_content";
Content-Type: application/json
 
{
"ContentDocumentId" : "069D00000000so2",
"ReasonForChange" : "Marketing materials updated",
"PathOnClient" : "Q1 Sales Brochure.pdf"
}
 
--boundary_string
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="VersionData"; filename="Q1 Sales Brochure.pdf"
 
Binary data goes here.
