ParametersExpand Collapse

--vector-store-id: string

The ID of the vector store the file belongs to.

--file-id: string

The ID of the file to update attributes.

--attributes: map[string or number or boolean]

Set of 16 key-value pairs that can be attached to an object.

Keys are strings with a maximum length of 64 characters. Values are strings with a maximum length of 512 characters, booleans, or numbers.

ReturnsExpand Collapse

vector_store_file: object { id, created_at, last_error, 6 more }

A list of files attached to a vector store.

id: string

The identifier, which can be referenced in API endpoints.

created_at: number

The Unix timestamp (in seconds) for when the vector store file was created.

last_error: object { code, message }

The last error associated with this vector store file. Will be null if there are no errors.

code: "server_error" or "unsupported_file" or "invalid_file"

One of server_error, unsupported_file, or invalid_file.

"server_error"

"unsupported_file"

"invalid_file"

message: string

A human-readable description of the error.

object: "vector_store.file"

The object type, which is always vector_store.file.

status: "in_progress" or "completed" or "cancelled" or "failed"

The status of the vector store file, which can be either in_progress, completed, cancelled, or failed. The status completed indicates that the vector store file is ready for use.

"in_progress"

"completed"

"cancelled"

"failed"

usage_bytes: number

The total vector store usage in bytes. Note that this may be different from the original file size.

vector_store_id: string

The ID of the vector store that the File is attached to.

attributes: optional map[string or number or boolean]

union_member_0: string

union_member_1: number

union_member_2: boolean

chunking_strategy: optional StaticFileChunkingStrategyObject { static, type } or OtherFileChunkingStrategyObject { type }

The strategy used to chunk the file.

static_file_chunking_strategy_object: object { static, type }

static: object { chunk_overlap_tokens, max_chunk_size_tokens }

chunk_overlap_tokens: number

The number of tokens that overlap between chunks. The default value is 400.

Note that the overlap must not exceed half of max_chunk_size_tokens.

max_chunk_size_tokens: number

The maximum number of tokens in each chunk. The default value is 800. The minimum value is 100 and the maximum value is 4096.

type: "static"

Always static.

other_file_chunking_strategy_object: object { type }

This is returned when the chunking strategy is unknown. Typically, this is because the file was indexed before the chunking_strategy concept was introduced in the API.

type: "other"

Always other.
