Sending with attachments is not that much different from Mail Merge.
You need to provide your attachments as the Multipart/Form-Data POST field in your Send request, so the specific request's parameter for attachments does not exist.
There is no limit on how many attachments you can send with the email.
Note: There is currently a limit of 10 MB/overall email size.
