Even when you have one property group it should be a list with one entry, not just a single string, as you have passed. If you take a look on 'filter_some', you will see that expected type is list, not something else (list of ids, not just one id itself - even when it's alone). Wrap your id' string with array.
Hi toki4004,
It's a good idea to prototype API call when you are not sure about something. 😉 So you can easy find out all differences and what's wrong. In particular (for /2/files/upload) you can take a look here. Click on "Show Code" to see how the call look like. Most valuable for you may be the "HTTP request" form of view (PHP is not supported).
Good luck.
