Yes, sorry for the delay. With the latest version of the sdk (2.0) I can successfully upload a file that I verified in the BIG-IP's /var/config/rest/downloads directory with remote authentication using tokens (i am testing on 12.1.) user_admin/letmein00 are only defined in my tacacs test server.

mr.shared.file_transfer.uploads.upload_file('/var/tmp/tempfile')
