Issue Uploading Files to Vector Store via OpenAI API

I’ve found a reproducible issue with file uploads to Vector Stores:

Steps to reproduce

  1. Go to API → Storage → Vector Stores and create a new test store.

  2. Click Add and upload any small file (I used a 30 KB .txt).

  3. The UI confirms “File uploaded successfully.”

  4. Refresh the page.

Observed behavior

  • The file never appears in the list, even after waiting 3-4 hours.

  • Calling the file-status endpoint shows the upload stuck at "status": "in_progress" for the entire time.

Expected behavior

The file should finish processing and show up in the Vector Store within a reasonable period.
