REST Web Service API: upload/update report template

I want to store and deploy report template with my code.

With this one in mind running a report is a two step process:

upload or update existing report template jrxml (it does not have links to other resources like images)
run it with my data (this one is done)

The official documentation doesn't contain a minimal example for updating report template

What is raw request which uploads/updates report template xml via JasperReports Server REST API?

I tried this way

here is my raw request

here is response

here what I see in /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/jasperserver/WEB-INF/logs/jasperserver.log

What am I doing wrong? What does 400 error: could not find the binary content for resource: /Reports/product_structures_workshops mean?

This works for Jasper 5.5+ (but does not for 5.1-, returns just 404 Not Found "Specified page not found" instead).

Uploading

POST http://your-host:port/jasperserver/rest_v2/resources/path/to/resource/

Content-Type: application.repository.reportUnit+json

{
    "label": "Sample",
    "jrxml": {
        "jrxmlFile": {
            "label": "MyJRXML",
            "type":"jrxml",
            // encode your file in Base64 and put here
            "content": "PD94bWwg..."
        }
    }
}

Updating

PUT http://your-host:port/jasperserver/rest_v2/resources/path/to/resource/myReport/

Content-Type: application.repository.reportUnit+json

{
    "label": "Sample",
    "jrxml": {
        "jrxmlFile": {
            "label": "MyJRXML",
            "type":"jrxml",
            // encode your file in Base64 and put here
            "content": "PD94bWwg..."
        }
    }
}

References:

We ended up with writing proprietary local JAVA application with jasper libraries, which does same thing

It looks like this is doable in older jasper versions (> 5.2):

they simplified significally REST API (look for API v2)
