Thanks for the report! I'll ask the team to fix up the string in that error message.

Based on the stack, it looks like the issue is occurring when decoding the path parameter in files_upload in particular. So, that indicates that the value you're supplying to the path parameter for the files_upload call isn't valid utf-8. You'll need to update your code to supply a valid utf-8 string to the path parameter.

I had a moment to open #205.
