I have the same issue on my side. I am trying to upload a very small json file - only 16 KB, and I see the same error.

There has to be something that’s broken, this can’t just be us. I uploaded a ùber small file (2kb) and the loaded is just spinning

Same here - Java files work 90% of the time, but I can’t see what is different on the 10% that don’t.

It seems I’ve come up with a - at least temporary - solution.

For my purposes, I was trying to upload a .txt file, but the assistant kept returning something like “I can’t process the file with the current tools”.

To fix this, I changed the “tools” key in the assistants object to be set to "code_interpreter" instead of "retrieval"

In addition, in the run object I changed the tools key to
tools=[{"type": "code_interpreter"}, {"type": "retrieval"}])
from before just having
tools= {"type": "retrieval"}

I hope this helps, I just tried this so I’m not sure if it’s a permanent fix, but I figured I’d suggest it.
