Answer 1

Hi Yazgan, Özkan

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum, thank you for posting your query here!

Yes, you can upload documents to the Azure OpenAI assistant's vector store using the API. You can create a vector store and add files to it in a single API call.

vector_store = client.beta.vector_stores.create(
  name="Product Documentation",
  file_ids=['file_1', 'file_2', 'file_3', 'file_4', 'file_5']
)

Additionally, you can add files to a vector store after it's created by creating vector store files or by creating batches of up to 500 files

Kindly refer below link: vector-stores

Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.

So I found a way to upload like this. I was asking to find a way to upload with Power Automate not with Python. Anyway I managed to do it like that. Just wanted to give feedback for future generations :). So basicly it worked as 2 steps for me. 1 Upload Document to files than attach it to correct vector storage.

This is the way to attach to Assistant,

And Finally, Check Status finally to make sure everything is right. (GET)

Good Luck to everyone out there...

for file_upload, is there an option to overwrite if the same file has already been uploaded before, similar to Blob overwrite=True?

file_batch = client.beta.vector_stores.file_batches.upload_and_poll(
  vector_store_id=AZURE_VECTOR_STORE_ID, 
  files=file_streams
)
