   5. `formatDataFunction` - Function to modify the request body. 'DisableMultipart' must be 'true' for this function to be called.
   6. `formatDataFunctionIsAsync` - Informs if the function sent in 'formatDataFunction' is asynchronous. Defaults to false.
   7. `parametersBeforeFiles` - States if additional parameters should be appended before or after the file. Defaults to false.

+  8. `uploadFilesInSingleRequest` - If 'true', all files in the queue will be uploaded using one multipart request. Defaults to false. Notice this cannot be combined with 'disableMultipart' is 'true'.

 ### Events
 
   - `fileOver` - it fires during 'over' and 'out' events for Drop Area; returns `boolean`: `true` if file is over Drop Area, `false` in case of out.
