You have put the supportsTeamDrives:"true" in the wrong place.

the docs https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v2/reference/files/insert specify that it needs to be a query parameter.

So simply change your request query params to this:

'params': {'uploadType': 'multipart', supportsTeamDrives: 'true' }

So the whole request becomes:

var request = gapi.client.request({
  'path': '/upload/drive/v2/files',
  'method': 'POST',
  'params': {'uploadType': 'multipart', 'supportsTeamDrives': 'true' },
  'headers': {
    'Content-Type': 'multipart/mixed; boundary="' + boundary + '"'
  },
  'body': multipartRequestBody
});
