Hi,

What happens if you try and upload your file using the playground assistants page?

I get the same error when i try using the playground assistant.

Only for that file or for any file?

(extra words for the minimum sentence length checking bot)

I tryed using the same file in csv and json both formats didn’t work

Ok, but what about a totally different file? I just uploaded a pdf and it was fine, then i tried an html and that was fine, so I’m trying to see if there is something specific in that file or if it’s with your account/upload environment.

When i make a different file it works i tryed another file with pdf format and it worked. The only stuff that is in my csv file i would like to use are just some dates i got from google calendar

can you upload the file to a google drive and link it here?

here would be the link
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lhEeZe8E9oRVeODDrhnxt75XntC_FqWl?usp=sharing

Ok i found out the error

in the file it had problems

{
“date”: “2023-11-12”,
“time”: “16:00:00”,
“summary”: “ajdjsad”
},

it has to be like this

thank you for your help

I’ve encountered the same issue. I wonder what went wrong.

const file = await AssistantHandler.UploadFiles({
         file: [
            {
               "start": "2023-11-14T15:30:00+01:00",
               "summary": "skdkasd",
            },
            {
               "start": "2023-11-14T19:00:00+01:00",
               "summary": "jadslk",
            },
         ],
         user_id: "ouG890XHkqh79nvlHQzftGkjKvEE",
         date: "2021-10-17",
         type: "prescription",
      });
static CreateLocalFile = async ({ file, user_id, date, type }) => {
      try {
         const filePath = path.join("/tmp", `${user_id}-${type}-${date}.json`);
         file.forEach((obj) => {
            const jsonString = JSON.stringify(obj);
            fs.appendFileSync(filePath, jsonString + "\n");
         });
         return filePath;
      } catch (error) {
         console.error("Error creating local file:", error.message);
         throw error;
      }
   };

   static async UploadFiles(params) {
      try {
         const filePath = await this.CreateLocalFile(params);
         const fileStream = fs.createReadStream(filePath, { encoding: "binary" });

         const response = await this.openai.files.create({
            file: fileStream,
            purpose: "assistants",
         });

         fs.unlinkSync(filePath);

         return response;
      } catch (error) {
         console.error("Error uploading file:", error.message);
         throw error;
      }
   }

You need to make the json like this
{
“date”: “2023-11-12”,
“time”: “17:00:00”,
“summary”: “jasdlk”
},

it doesn’t work when you have the T15:30:00+1:00 behind

It’s still an error. What exactly went wrong?

const file = await AssistantHandler.UploadFiles({
         file: [
            {
               start: "2023-11-14",
               summary: "skdkasd",
            },
            {
               start: "2023-11-14",
               summary: "jadslk",
            },
         ],
         user_id: "ouG890XHkqh79nvlHQzftGkjKvEE",
         date: "2021-10-17",
         type: "prescription",
      });
static CreateLocalFile = async ({ file, user_id, date, type }) => {
      try {
         const filePath = path.join("/tmp", `${user_id}-${type}-${date}.json`);
         file.forEach((obj) => {
            const jsonString = JSON.stringify(obj, null, 2);
            fs.appendFileSync(filePath, jsonString + "\r\n", "utf8");
         });
         return filePath;
      } catch (error) {
         console.error("Error creating local file:", error.message);
         throw error;
      }
   };

   static async UploadFiles(params) {
      try {
         const filePath = await this.CreateLocalFile(params);
         console.log("readFileSync", fs.readFileSync(filePath, "utf8"));
         const fileStream = fs.createReadStream(filePath);
         const response = await this.openai.files.create({
            file: fileStream,
            purpose: "assistants",
         });

         fs.unlinkSync(filePath);

         return response;
      } catch (error) {
         console.error("Error uploading file:", error.message);
         throw error;
      }
   }

where is the time?
{
start: “2023-11-14”,
summary: “skdkasd”,
},

you just have the date and the summary

I replaced the data with new values, but it’s still incorrect.

const file = await AssistantHandler.UploadFiles({
         file: [
            {
               "user_id":"ouG890XHkqh79nvlHQzftGkjKvEE1",
               "nickName": "abcdefg1"
            },
            {
               "user_id":"ouG890XHkqh79nvlHQzftGkjKvEE2",
               "nickName": "abcdefg2",
            },
         ],
         user_id: "ouG890XHkqh79nvlHQzftGkjKvEE",
         date: "2021-10-17",
         type: "prescription",
      });

Are you still experiencing the error? Cause I experience the same. My .json is the following:

{"profile_titles":["Senior Backend Developer","Software Engineer"],
"recent_skills":["NoSQL", "Wireframing", "Figma"],
"other_skills":["XML", "Testing"], 
"recent_competencies": ["quick learner", "driven"],
"other_competencies": ["resilient", "flexible"],
"recent_experiences": ["launched product from scratch", "scaled the engine to 10m/week processed items"],
"other_experiences": ["driving company growth from 10 to 100 people"],
"location_current": "London, UK",
"experience_years": 5,
"work_permit_country": "Switzerland",
"languages": ["fluent English", "basic German", "native Italian"],
"certifications": ["PMI", "Scrum"],
"educations": ["MSc in Engineering from TU Berlin", "BSc in Management, MIT"]
}

Ani ideas why it might not let it in?

I’m experiencing the error and have no idea what can it be. I tried with a simple json file and still getting the error
{
“products”: [
{“name”:“bed”,“price”:“10”}
, {“name”:“table”,“price”:“5”}
, {“name”:“chair” ,“price”:“2”}
, {“name”:“mouse”,“price”:“0.5”}
, {“name”:“screen”,“price”:“5”}
]
}

“I added the following code at the top, and it can be uploaded successfully, but this is not a standard JSON format.”

fs.writeFileSync(filePath, "application/json\n", "utf8");

If this helps, i tried uploading a json file that with less than 1kb size and it throws me the invalid file format error. Then i added items to the file until it’s was more than 1kb and the upload was successfully. But the i tried with this json file:

{
“products”:
}

26bytes and it uploaded successfull.
So i don’t if this is the correct behavior but i’ll just upload 1kb+ json files
