Vector store Retrieving Uploaded Files

Hi, guys!
I have misunderstanding in how the vector store in OpenAI works, so want to clarify:
I have created a vector store on my account, added files.
And I wanted to retrieve those files by context, which is quite obvious functionality (at least in other vector stores). But stumbled over the problem that I cannot find a proper endpoint and had a hard time figuring out how to find the solution still using an OpenAI vecotreStore

Hi @gutorov.k and welcome to the Forum!

Vector stores and the associated file search capability can currently only be used in conjunction with OpenAI Assistants.

So while there is a dedicated endpoint for creating and managing the files associated with a vector store, there is no direct way to perform a file search outside of the Assistant environment.
