Upload images to thread by user

API
1

Hey there.

Recently started working with Assistants.
Message handler looks like this:

client.beta.threads.messages.create(
    thread_id=thread_id,
    role="user",
    content=message,
)

But after some time decided to add also image handler such that user uploads the image and Assistant understands.
Scanning API 2-3 hours could not find the solution.

So I would like to discuss it with you.

How it can be fixed:

if file_path:
        file = client.files.create(
            file=open(file_path, "rb"),
            purpose="vision"
        )

        client.beta.threads.messages.create(
            thread_id=thread_id,
            role="user",
            content=message,
            attachments=[
                {"file_id": file.id, "tools": [{"type": "file_search"}]}
            ],
        )

Hope this will be solved and be helpful for others.
