  It looks like /buildWithParameters doesn't support files:
  http://stackoverflow.com/a/18051907/1527562
  
  I haven't looked at the plugin source code, but this might be solved by simply allowing parameters to be passed to /buildByToken/build, enabling the following:
  curl -X POST "http://.../buildByToken/build?job=job&token=token" \
  		-F file0=@/dist.json \
  		-F json='{"parameter": [{"name": "dist", "file": "file0"}]}' \
  		-F delay=0sec
  java.lang.Exception: Use /buildByToken/buildWithParameters for this job since it takes parameters

  The build root token plugin is great. But it's really unfortunate that is doesn't support file parameters.

  Any updates on the issue? Once you disabled jenkins-cli.jar and SSH remote invocation, the only way to start a job with parameters is curl. curl to /build doesn't work as doesn't return job id (JENKINS-30317) and /buildWithParameters doesn't accept file parameters. So currently I'm fully blocked.

  Have you tried using the file-parameters plugin instead? Test against build-token-root file-parameters-plugin#18
