using this (not as is, $parameters are filled in as it runs:

c:\day1\i386\curl.exe -i -F format=$format -F file=@$file -F access_token=$token $hostw/bulk/v1/leads.json -F listId=$list

I am able to upload lead data into Marketo via the CURL command above  The $variables are populated during execution.  Works fine.

below is WHAT i think it should be for powershell to upload the same file, or close to this.

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "$hostw/bulk/v1/leads.json?access_token=$token" -Method Post -InFile $file  -ContentType 'multipart/form-data'

is that even possible to reproduce ?
